Kirk has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
In reference to Monaco. Mainly due to the one-tyre rule in 2005, there were several cars with badly worn rear tyres. The most obvious being Fisi and FA, causing them to slow significantly later in the race. I would assume that the rear tyres wearing faster than the fronts would cause loosen the car or cause oversteer, which to most F1 drivers is not that bad to some degree. But the Renaults pace suffered last year, Fisi faded fast and FA just barely hung on. This may not be such a factor this year but if there ever was a track where you can get away with a less than balanced car it is at Monte Carlo. Of course, assuming you keep it on the track.
