My head says Sauber for another points finish but my heart says for McLaren Honda.

Or, heart for Sauber but head for McLaren to be opposite.

Mercedes - who'd have thought that Toto Wolf had a sense of humour?

No - in all seriousness, I'll give it to McLaren Honda. Yes - they lost one car - but they did get one car into their first points finish of the season. It's probably one of the few track that they knew they had a chance at.

Red Bull maximized their result and got both cars ahead of Raikkonen.

Can't give it to McLaren seeing as how Alonso's race ended.

To my surprise, I am the only person voting for Ferrari. Where are all the usual fanboys? It's pretty simple, they had the second-fastest car, both finished and they didn't cack-up their strategy.

Sadly I couldn't give it to Williams because they were abysmal. Red Bull were OK, but nothing more. Toro Rosso were going well but messed up in the pits. Awarding TOTR to McLaren for being less bad than so far this season is a nonsense. Manor Marussia would just be a sympathy vote.

I'll join you with a Ferrari vote, TrapezeArtist. I was going to go for STR, who were more exciting than their big brother, but you reminded me about the pitstop. Mercedes ruled themselves out of the equation with the Lewis side of the garage and Red Bull not even getting a podium doesn't do it for me. McLaren made a step (but it was Monaco, a modern anomaly) and might have been a contender had they got both cars to a points finish. It seems like McLaren have been in the doldrums for so long that they're not getting popularity votes when they do (quite) well!

I voted for Red Bull to be team of the race. They were the only team who seemed to have their act together with both drivers doing well and a good effort at the end putting their faster driver up the order to apply pressure to the moribund Hamilton.

Plus I think the invented a new type of team order in Monaco. 'Politically correct' team orders is how I would describe them!

RBR have to earn the TEAM kudos. They were in fact the only ones to operate as a team in an effort to maximise the points scored by the team.
Good strategy, an interesting tactical decision at the end to try and secure a podium and no arrogance or disrespect between team mates or I would assume their pit wall teams
Did the best with what they had and no "dummy spits".
