Who do you think is the team of the Monaco Grand Prix this year?

Mark0994 · 29 May 2016, 14:19 (Ref:3645507)

Gotta be Force India

dsg · 29 May 2016, 14:22 (Ref:3645510)

Certainly wasn't Sauber.

Mekola · 29 May 2016, 14:39 (Ref:3645517)

Force India did great with both drivers.

**Born Racer** · 29 May 2016, 14:48 (Ref:3645520)

Force India for me. Two top-six finishes including another crafty podium from Sergio Perez. Now there's a driver who often gets the best out of difficult conditions.

**FIRE** · 29 May 2016, 16:04 (Ref:3645541)

Force India

GT6 · 29 May 2016, 18:57 (Ref:3645601)

Well only one team did not have a nightmare really Force india gets my vote

Red Bull has to be it surely. Taking the best chassis with still probably the 3rd best engine and banging it on pole, and driving it away from the field is not the work of imbeciles.

Note that the people who did this generally are not in charge of the pitstops...

**bjohnsonsmith** · 29 May 2016, 23:44 (Ref:3645686)

Force India.

Grandpa_Rob · 30 May 2016, 08:51 (Ref:3645741)

Force India

But sadly the imbeciles that are responsible for the pit stops are part of the team and their work more than made up for the good others in the team had done.

Force India, I think, much achieved with relatively little!

for me, i like that both Mclarens' found their way into the points.

I think the description " imbeciles" is rather harse to say the least to describe the mechanics at Red Bull ..🙁

If you have called a GP car into the pits to change the tyres, and have none out, genii does not seem to apply somehow!

Neil22 · 31 May 2016, 05:29 (Ref:3645964)

Force India, kudos to McLaren and a big pile of you know what for the Red Bull brain trust.

Yet RBR couldn't get it done...

Poor old Manor with their budget of nothing and zero managed to do it. RBE couldn't...

The mechanics didn't call the stop.

True, but the TEAM did, and that's what this vote is for!

TrapezeArtist · 31 May 2016, 22:08 (Ref:3646175)

I voted for Red Bull. Then I remembered the tyre-change saga.

Nonetheless, they had the pace in both qualifying and the race. And this is team of the race, so I discount throwing it at the wall (3 times!).

But if I had remembered the tyre-change as I was voting, I would probably have followed the herd and gone with Force India. They did a fine job, as did their drivers.

Honourable mention for Mercedes too: still right there at the top, minor glitch in qually and a bit of a question mark over Rosberg's race-pace. Was it the car? Or just the nut holding the steering wheel?

Mies7337 · 1 Jun 2016, 19:50 (Ref:3646418)

I've never laughed as hard at a team as I did with Sauber this weekend. That crash was hilarious!

**Aysedasi** · 1 Jun 2016, 20:36 (Ref:3646427)

I'm feeling the Force here too.....

Use the Force(India).

It's got to be them, and their superb podium for Sergio.

Respect to Mercedes, for calling for Rosberg to move over to allow Lewis through and ultimately claim a win. That was a tough call - still, they got both cars in the points - and a win, but Nico is still in the lead.

Special mention to Red Bull - they got pole, and were in the lead for most of the race, but the pitstop killed their chances.
