Spicing Up The Show

In recent weeks every man and his dog has voiced an opinion in terms of the great tyre debate, but surely Mike Lawrence is the first to compare the situation to Shakespeare’s great tragedy, Hamlet.

Monaco GP: Practice notes - Pirelli

So far we're seeing a difference of up to a second per lap between the two compounds, which is in line with our expectations at this point, but we would expect that gap to come down as the weekend goes on.

Monaco GP: Practice notes - Force India

Performance-wise, we are in our usual position and the target for Saturday is to see both cars inside the top ten.

Monaco GP: Practice notes - Lotus

We're pretty happy about today. We had a little blip with Romain going into the wall and stopping him doing any long run evaluations in the afternoon, but Kimi completed plenty of laps so we have ample amounts of data to evaluate.

Monaco GP: Practice notes - Ferrari

In free practice for the Monaco Grand Prix, the priority is always to make the most of the time available to run on track: today we exploited all 180 minutes available.

Monaco GP: Practice notes - McLaren

Jenson and Checo immediately found their groove so that we were able to conduct positive evaluative work during this morning's session. The car is responding positively to set-up changes and we're making progress.

Monaco GP: Practice notes - Toro Rosso

We ran different set-up philosophies across our two cars and in both cases we wanted to get in as many laps as possible.

Monaco GP: Practice notes - Williams

We were running different parts across the two cars this morning to try to improve our overall performance. We were happy with what we saw with Pastor's car, but we made some changes this afternoon which didn't work as we wanted.

Monaco GP: Practice notes - Sauber

The updated parts are working as intended, which is positive. It's clear traffic management is going to be key in Monaco, as usual.

Monaco GP: Practice notes - Marussia

Both drivers have had a clean start to their Monaco debut in an F1 car. The programme we set out was based around giving them plenty of laps for circuit familiarisation, along with some more detailed tyre evaluations in FP2.

Rosberg continues to set Monaco pace

Nico Rosberg gained the laurels after setting the fastest time in both opening practice sessions, though this afternoon’s perhaps rather less meaningful than the morning’s as teams shifted focus to race set up.

Monaco GP: Thursday Free 2 - Times

Times from today's second practice session for the Grand Prix de Monaco.

Monaco GP: Practice notes - Mercedes

Both Nico and Lewis, along with our engineers, did a very good job working together through the programme. A pleasing start to the weekend and now we have to make the right decisions for Saturday and Sunday.

Rosberg sets early pace in Monaco

Mercedes and Ferrari set the early pace on the street of the Principality, with an aggressive Romain Grosjean keeping them company. The top five covered by just 0.274s.

Monaco GP: Thursday Free 1 - Times

Full times from today's first free practice session for the Grand Prix de Monaco.
