Yippie!!!!!!!M.S is on pole!!!!

Go Shummi, go!

Pole : Schmuck
2. Alonso

If schmuck wouldn't have stalled his car like that on the turn exit alonso would have taken the pole i think. Damn ferrari/schmuck's tactics

Its telecasted Live! on Star Sports at 4:30pm IST starting off with RaceDay followed by the race and then the report at Chequered Flag. Should be available in the US too if u have Star Sports..

There is already a lot of controversy about the pole. It seems that Flavio is very furious about the incident and has commented on it. The race stewards are looking in to the matter and if they find that it was done delibrately, then Schumi would have to say "bye-bye" to the pole. Below is an article from ITV-F1.com:

if schumi stays on pole...as far as the controversy goes..and is not brought down the order...he has the race in his pocket....
in other words..if he starts first he is gonna end first..its monaco after all

Gordon · 27th May 2006, 23:05

First lap, pit strategy, tyre problems and driver error are the only things that may prevent him from a win

Mechanical error, electrical error....that covers everything

Main issiues could be the tyres, brakes and driver error. Racasse would be one corner to really watchout for..

aZa · 27th May 2006, 23:35

But now if Alonso wins, i think all that stuff bout just the car being good and not the driver is gonna be put to rest!!

Let the best man win...

my money is on alonso

karthik247 · 27th May 2006, 23:40

Pit stops would also play an important role...but more than that, guess it'll be upto the drivers. There will b traffic all the time, u can run away and create a gap between the ones behind

sujaylahiri · 28th May 2006, 00:32

MS officially sucks now. His time of 1:13.709 was slower than Kimi Raikkonen, Alonso and Fisichella and despite that he managed to clinch the controversial pole. How retarded is that?

In fact Kimi had the fastest time of 1:13.532

cheap_deal · 28th May 2006, 02:12

button will win. 2nd place i dont care. its only 1st place that matters for me

sujaylahiri · 28th May 2006, 05:27

Finally justice has been done. Michael Schumacher has been accused by the race stewards of deliberately braking hard and stalling his car in order to prevent his competitors to beat his time in the last corner. As a result, he has been pushed to the back of the grid alongwith his teammate Massa who had a spin before.
Boohoo Ferrari and MS.

Although I feel bad for Massa.
