How many cars do you think will NOT finish in Monaco?

Question

Give the number of cars and who you think will retire.

Answer 1

ha, good question

Given that this is Monaco with no TC, I wouldn't be surprised if none of the top guys made it to the first bend.

This is Motorsport, and to coin Murray 'Anything can happen!'

Answer 2

hmm i think 6-9 cars won't finish.

i still remember when kimi missed the pitlane !!!! ( i think it was Nurburing ??? )

Answer 3

6 cars retired, starting with Sebastian Bordais

Answer 4

I think we'll see at least four cars retire by the end of the first lap, seven if it rains.  I think only nine or ten cars will make it to the chequered flag.

Answer 5

Ten.

Answer 6

Well we dont know yet how many cars will grid up on sunday because you never know what can happen between now and then, But i predict that only 12 cars will make the chequered flag.

Hope i am right cos i have bet money on it.

Answer 7

12

Answer 8

I think that all the experienced ones like kimi, massa, dc, barichhello, etc would finish the race and the inexperienced ones wouldnt. But u never know. Maybe hamilton and co. would proove a point or two.

Weather will also be important

Answer 9

If it rains i can see as few as 4-6 finishing like in 1996. The current V8 engines are very peaky which makes them very hard to drive in the wet. Hamilton does appear to be good in the wet if he starts up front and stays there. Rubens would do well in a wet race a la monaco 97. Fisi came second in the wet 1997 race. Alonso is very good in the wet. Kimi is fairly good in the wet too but its hard to judge them in the wet these days as most havent done wet races without TC before.

If its wet i see very few cars finishing.

Answer 10

Depends on the weather really. It's already tough when it'd dry and it'd only be worse if it rains. If the weather remains fine, 5 cars will not finish. And if it rains, 9 cars won't finish. It could be anyone. I'd keep an eye out for Nakajima first.
