    The Monaco circuit is not the problem, but the cars are far too wide and too long now.

    The F1 rules were created without any consideration about Monaco.

    It will come to a point when racing in F1 in the principality will become impossible.

    F1 needs compact cars with less aero.

    Imagine the latest iPhone being the size and weight of a Motorolla 4800 !

    Future F1 rules could make the cars narrower and shorter not just for Monaco but for everybody.

    But all Monaco needs right now is a no aero/wings race; mechanical traction only.

    We can only wish.

    In the "old days", most cars sported shorter nose when racing at Monaco.

    Alesi in the Ferrari? That's gonna make at least one FChatter here very happy.

    Cool pics. Strange that Alesi, Arnoux and Charles post for a picture while wearing their masks. Kind defies the purpose.

    Photos bring back sweet memories of when I was able to attend that event armed with a real press photographer's pass and access pretty much everywhere. It was a highlight of my life. I stood inside the turn before the entrance to the tunnel right behind the armco, I could almost touch the cars and had to use a wide angle lens to capture them. It was heavenly.
