Fantastic job from Massa. Kimi made mistakes in his fast lap and that cost him the pole. But anyway... great Q by both of them. Now the most important is keeping the lad behind them thru Turn 1, and the championship begins to look prettier :)

Mclaren was very fast, but I saw the same kind of problems as they did in Barcelona... the handling just doesn't seem 100%. Heikki looked smoother, but slower.

I like watching Massa take pole or win a race cause he can never keep a straight face during the press conference and then tries to hide it.

Yah congrat's to Massa and he does not like Monaco but he could not wipe the smile off his face during the press conference. If he can win from pole it will be the first time for Ferrari since 1979 with Jody Scheckter.

I was not expecting it as Hammy & Kovi were looking good most of the weekend but good job to the Ferrari boys.
I still think it is going to be anyones race as many things can and will come into play at Manaco. But bring it on, it should be a good race.

I think this is one of the most surprising things to have happened so far this season. If he wins tomorrow, he could be set for a real championship fight. And he might win it.

Congratulations to Ferrari. Had Raikkonen not have made a few mistakes, he could've been on pole. I'm not as surprised as some people are. Ferrari often keep their powder dry and unleash their true potential in qualifying. I'm not sure what to think about McLaren's situation. The car didn't look as bolted to the road compared to Thursday, and maybe the team got a bit cocky and thought they could get away with putting another lap or two's fuel in the car. If McLaren have got some more fuel, if they can keep in touch with the Ferraris. Safety car periods and rain are also on the agenda. It's not all lost yet for McLaren, but there's a lot of work to be done. Before I pass comment on the car's pace, I'll wait until I've seen the race.

Rosberg and Kubica did pretty well. In fact, from the way Kubica was talking, he could've found himself on the second row had he been able to warm his tyres up on his out lap.

Coulthard's accident was weird. To me, it looks like something went wrong on the car. It will be interesting to find out for certain.

I was really pleased with Kubica's and Rosberg's performance. I dont know what hapened to Heidfeld, I think something was wrong with his car because they brought the car into the garage with 3 minutes left in Q2. To be frank, I think Massa will probably crack under pressure from whoever is behind him and will hit a barrier or will get lucky and spin out but lose the lead.

or bud could just ask me and i will tell him!

Massa on Pole is a huge to shock to me i thought that if any Ferrari would be up there it would be kimi.
Mclaren must be worried because either Ferrari is a better car over most of the circuits or lewis didn't get the most out of the car. Either way Massa is as good as the race winner already and that is more points dropped. If this is going to be a competitive title race this year Mclaren or BMW have got to step up.
