Fancy Heidfeld for a points finish in this at 2-1 at spodds. Monte Carlo is very much a horses for courses track and he has 4 top 8 finishes from 6 starts in some les than competitive cars. Included in that is 2nd last year in the Williams. Although the BMW isn't as competitive as last years Williams it has usually been around the fringes of the points this year. And with Heidfelds liking for this circuit I would expect him to be a serious contender for some points.

Heidfeld brought it home in 7th at Monaco, despite qualifying back in 16th, so landed the 2-1 bet:D (although went out to 4-1 after qualifying):roll:
Due to the lack of activity in the bronze section I dont see the point in starting a seperate thread for the British GP.
Of the prices up for Silverstone so far Barrichello looks a good bet to get some points at 4/5. Button has brought the BAR home in 3rd here the last 2 years and 8th from last on the grid in 2003, so the car seems to perform well at the circuit. Also Barrichello is a track specialist out qualify Michael Schumacher the last 3 years which included winning the race from pole in 2003. In 2004 he finished 3rd and last year he was 1 second behind Schumacher in 7th, but the Ferrari was awful. He seems to have got to grips with the new BAR after a solid 4th in the last race in Monaco (which would have been 3rd but for a speeding in the pit lane penalty) He is also worth a small bet at 16-1 for a podium finish with sporting odds (next biggest is 9-1)
