The German driver Nico Rosberg, who resides in Monte Carlo, today has achieved an expected pole ahead of his teammate Hamilton and Vettel, all in a the same tenth of a second.
They have been followed by Mark Webber, Kimi Raikkonen and Fernando Alonso. The session started in wet conditions and all the Q1 has been disputed on the intermediate tyres, with which Giedo Van Der Garde has sneaked in Q2. The Q2 has started with the intermediates but at the end of the session all of the drivers used dry tyres, where Fernando Alonso has suffered a lot to move to the last session of the qualifying.
The Q3 has been completely dry and that the maximum favorites have been uncovered and the two mercedes monopolized the first line, followed by the two Red Bull.
Tomorrow there is no rain forecast, and when the race is over, any resemblance with the reality is purely coincidental.
