Glock expects to be competitive in Monaco

Timo Glock is looking forward to this weekend's Monaco Grand Prix. The Spanish Grand Prix was the first race this season where Glock had missed out on points. He expects to be more competitive again at this weekend's Monaco Grand Prix and score more points for the F1 championship.

Speaking about the upcoming race weekend Timo Glock said: "Last year Monaco was a tricky race for us because of the changing weather but in general I really enjoy racing at street circuits, and this one in particular. I've had some strong performances in GP2 at Monaco and I know you have to be completely focused because it is so easy to make a mistake and ruin your race.

"It will be important to qualify well, as it always is in Monaco, because it's virtually impossible to overtake in the race unless the guy in front of you has a problem. Unfortunately the Spanish Grand Prix didn't go according to plan due to the problems on the first lap and it was very frustrating to miss the points for the first time this season.

"It will be interesting to experience how this season's car feels around Monaco because we have less downforce but more grip from the slick tyres. Generally our car has felt pretty good this season so there's no reason why we can't be competitive in Monaco."
