The grid features six world champions. Only three of them have won a race this season, and of those, Britain’s Lewis Hamilton seems better placed to win than Kimi Raikkonen and the struggling Michael Schumacher.

“It is an unusual season with winners you would have never guessed,” said Hamilton, referring to two weeks ago when 300-to-1 outsider Pastor Maldonado won in Barcelona. “It is great for the fans as every race translates into a thriller.”

It’s been a very strange, but extremely exciting season so far. The always excellent, always glamorous Monaco Grand Prix is this weekend. Can’t wait.
