Default 66th Grand Prix de Monaco - 2008

Post here news and pics about this years Formula 1 Grand Prix de Monaco (May 22nd - 25th).

Quote:
Every spring, sports car fans from around the globe descend on the Principality of Monaco to witness the Monaco F1 Grand Prix, the only race in the world that is held on city streets. Spectators delight in the raucous noise of the roaring engines as they speed along the Boulevard Albert 1er up toward the Casino and dare the hairpin turn in front of the Fairmont Monte Carlo. Organized by the Automobile Club of Monaco, the Monaco Grand Prix is one of the world's most popular international sporting events and takes place each year during the last weekend in May.
Have a look at last years Grand Prix Thread:

65th Grand Prix de Monaco - 2007

Monaco Grand Prix -- May 2006

and at the retrospective thread: Monaco Grand Prix Retrospective

Both Andrea and Pierre's names are on the official poster, but I don't know if that means that they'll definitely be there...let's hope so.

So is Albert's, but he hasn't played for a while. I think Pierre will, though. He seems to like it.

It would be awesome if Louis plays next year.
Have Sheph's children ever attended this soccer match? I know that Louis definitely likes soccer, I saw him watching matches many times with his mom and siblings.

When was the last time that the "Stars" team actually won? I think it's quite funny... But it's for a good cause, so getting your butt whipped is alright

Thanks for the pics everyone! Was Andrea not there this year, or has everyone just decided that Pierre is the better looking of the two?
