Kimi Räikkönen Set to Take Pole for Formula One Monaco GP

Formula One News
After winning the Spanish GP 2 weeks ago, McClaren-Mercedes driver, Kimi Räikkönen, outshined the thusfar dominant Renault of Fernando Alonso in preliminary qualifying for the Monaco GP (link to an interactive track map - it's cool). Final qualifying is set to go in about 5 hours, with the race to start in about 11 hours at 2PM local time. SpeedChannel viewers in the US check your local listings. NZ viewers can watch the race live at midnight on Channel One.

There will be a special memorial dedication of today's race to Prince Rainier of Monaco who passed away last month, widower of former film star, Grace Kelly, the late Princess Grace.
