      Do you think they need to shake up the design philosophy there?

      I'm not even certain the Red Bull is as comfortably the third best as it is showing. For me Ricciardo and Verstappen are possibly the fastest pairing on the grid but swap them with any other driver that isn't Hamilton or Vettel and the car will look even more unspectacular.

      Been saying for awhile that there are a few personnel changes needed.
      Not sure why they haven't taken some staff from STR.

      Things going well for Alonso as he prepares for Indy 500 next week.

      Indy 500 qualifying is on BT Sport right now. Alonso in the top 9 shootout. Leaning a lot more about Indy 500 this year!

      Alonso qualifies 5th for next Sunday's Indy 500. For a 'rookie' who is so inexperienced in racing those cars that is an incredible effort. Goes to show what a fine driver he is. New Zealander Scott Dixon takes pole. Our old friend Takuma Sato starts alongside Fernando in 4th place.

      Monaco GP this weekend. Ferrari looked good in practice yesterday. Unbelievably just found out that if Ferrari win then it will be their first win at the principality since Schumacher's in 2001!!

      I thought Alonso won whilst at Ferrari, obviously I was wrong though.

      Going for a Vettel win this time.

      Yeah I had to think twice but I think - Fernando won it in the Renault and McLaren in two consecutive years in 06 and 07 but has never won it since.

      No doubting who the King of Monaco is though!

      Lance Stroll. Hot prospect or just a bag of money?

      Difficult to say at this early stage but so far he hasn't screamed hot prospect to me.

      Yeah I agree. He's got impressive results in the lower formulas but I've not seen a flash of his talent so far.

      I do think he's been a bit unlucky with coming into f1 when these new faster, more aggressive cars came in compared to when Verstappen first entered f1 a couple of years back in tamer machines. But Williams knew that when signing him up so it's not really an argument that carries.

      He may well still prove to be a great driver but someone like  Max is a born racer and a tough act to follow

      Me too. No where I'd rather be in the world right now. Actually that probably applies to most days when discussing Monte Carlo!

      Can't wait to see how these new machines tackle the track at full speed.

      Going to be exciting.

      I think Seb for pole with a possible Ferrari lock out.

      Max could spring a surprise though.

      Yep - Ferrari 1/2 for me as well. Look beastly so far this weekend.

      I think Hulkenberg could be handy if he hooks the car up.
