Almost everyone who started on that dirty side got a bad start. Vettel is walking away with this championship, I'd say it's already over.

Poor effort by webber again. I used to think he could really drice but he has been ordinary this year. How can you start on pole and finish 4th over 40 seconds behind leader.

Vettel wins again. Hamilton 2nd, Button 3rd and webber a poor 4th. Only 4 cars finished on lead lap

Can someone teach Webber how to get off the line properly FFS ?? Make him sit in the Red Bull in the car park and practice them daily.... he might find he may actually win a race again if he does !!

First session over in Monaco. Vettel quickest after a late challenge from Alonso. Webber didn't set a time after gearbox issues. Luizzi spun and took the front of the car off on the barrier on the entrance to the chicane, and Schumacher locked up going into Sainte Devote, tried to take to the escape road and slid sideways into the barrier. Ricciardo put in a good final lap to finish 14th, two spots behind Buemi.

Very nasty shunt for Perez at the chicane, almost identical to Rosberg's accident this morning in P3, except the Mercedes just missed the barriers.

Medical car on the scene...hope he is ok :(

Looks like another Vettel pole...

Third is reasonable. Often it's a better spot than second depending on whether it's the clean side or not, especially on a street circuit.

Vettel just looks like the best driver in the best car. Only person capable of challenging is Webber this season but red bull clearly want Vettel to win, not to mention Vettel is just better.

Odds on this young aussie driving the rest of the season in Toro Rosso with a view to moving to Red Bull to be the new #2 either next year or 2013?
