Monaco Grand Prix 2022: all about the race – News
The 2022 Formula 1 season continues in the Principality this weekend. Here’s everything you need to know before placing your bets.
The most glamorous of circuits has been delighting all F1 lovers since 1950. Who has never dreamed of attending the ball dressed in their best suit, a glass of champagne in hand, with the secret hope of seeing Vanko and his huge whips?
The circuit of Monaco
It was in 1929 that racing engines rang out for the first time in the Principality, after cigarette manufacturer Antony Noghes decided to organize a race with his pals from the Automobile Club of Monaco. The race entered the calendar of the first year of the Formula 1 World Championship in 1950, never to leave it.
Main characteristic of the circuit: its narrowness. “A bicycle race in a living room”, as Nelson Piquet summed it up well. Every millimeter counts, which greatly complicates overtaking. Remember the 2003 edition, when there were… zero! Will this year be busier? It’s hard to say imposing with the 2022 single-seaters on such a tight circuit, but the champagne and the view from the terrace should, whatever happens, give some flavor to this Monaco Grand Prix.
Virtual lap with Charles Leclerc
Verstappen, the right plan?
The Dutch crack remains on three consecutive victories and Charles Leclerc has often had bad luck on his land. Admittedly, the Red Bull still shows reliability problems but the power unit of the Ferrari also suffers some technical pangs. It is therefore difficult to decide between the two drivers, and complicated to put on a chaser…
However, Ferrari should have the edge over Red Bull in terms of performance. The Italian single-seater is superior in corners at slow or medium speed, in number on the Rock. Although Red Bull have combined some of their backlog, a difference still remains. This explains why Charles Leclerc is preferred with odds to @2… But Max Verstappenside to @2.25is perhaps the strongest bet.
Bet on a Verstappen victory
The return of the Mercedes?
Spain has seen the return of mercedes in the foreground, with a fine podium for Russell and an encouraging fifth place for Lewis Hamilton. Why not take the opportunity to get a podium with the German team? Russell is listed at @3.05 and hamilton a @3.10two great offers that we may not see again if Mercedes confirms its return to form.
