If there is a GP that marks a driver's life, it is that of Monaco. With a track unlike any other, this sixth meeting of the 2009 season is impatiently awaited by Robert Kubica: “ I'm a big fan of city circuits so I'm looking forward to this Monaco Grand Prix. I always have a good feeling knowing that I'm going to drive between walls and barriers. » A demanding track, a layout that exhausts many, the Monaco GP is one of the most difficult of the season. And that’s what pleases the Pole: “ There is no room for error, which keeps things interesting. Of course, we cannot know in advance how our “2009 model” cars, with the new aero and new tires, will behave on this circuit. We'll have to wait until Thursday for that. »
For his part, Nick Heidfeld sees this GP as an opportunity to experience a weekend like no other. A run into town for a meeting F1 is a rare moment that the German pilot wants to savor: “ It?s crazy because it?s the circuit least suited to Formula 1, but it?s the most popular. This narrow and winding city circuit is magical. Only Macau is comparable but we don't race there in F1. This Monaco Grand Prix is something truly special. »
Compared to the other circuits frequented by the FIA, that of the principality brings a touch of eccentricity. And allows pilots to immerse themselves for a weekend in an unusual atmosphere. “ There are many famous people around, the port is full of yachts, the sound of F1 engines reverberates throughout the principality? You can also see the spectators near the circuit. It?s also the only place where fans can get so close to the action. Every time I come here, it?s a wonderful spectacle. » All that remains for BMW is to achieve good results next weekend to make the party complete.
