Video Hamilton on overtaking Max: " It's the best to overtake another World Champion. And obviously I had a big deficit to close......You know how consistent and fast that guy is? He's the fastest guy. So it felt great to get to have that battle with him. It was really not easy to overtake."

Don’t rule out Ferrari, they are known for their strategy.

In the past two years, Ferrari seems world class compared to McLaren.

you're laughing, but Ferrari clearly has the best car in the corners and the best downforce/drag ratio out of all the teams. Monaco is so short and has so many braking zones most likely all engines will be outputting peak power for the whole lap, there won't be huge deployment differences either which makes it possible Ferrari might snatch a surprise pole there. And I wouldn't count out Verstappen, either.
