The Monaco Grand Prix is live on Sunday and the Formula One race is streaming online and on TV from NBC and the Sports Network live extra website starting up at 8 am ET and the F1 race comes from the Circuit de Monaco for the Grand Prix Of Monaco 2014 and many call it the party of the year and this time it has Lewis Hamilton looking for another win and teammate Nico Rosberg won in slight controversial fashion and now Nico Rosberg has won over his teammate Lewis Hamilton on Sunday.
The pole qualifying had a bit more drama than usual, as Rosberg ended up with the win after he beat teammate Hamilton and it came after a late error and Hamilton was angry afterwards about what happened. Hamilton was looking to land in first place heading into qualifying and after Rosberg lost control of his car out of one of the tough turns on the course and it sent out a yellow flag and Hamilton couldn't move up and now he has his second pole of the season and Hamilton now will have to do it from the next position and he is tops over his teammate by three points and has won the other four poles.
The Mercedes teammates came in at the top and Rosberg's win over Hamilton came ahead of Red Bull's Daniel Ricciardo, who was third, while defending champion Sebastian Vettel of Germany came in fourth and Fernando Alonso of Ferrari was fifth place. Hamilton spoke about the incident in the media and sounded as if there could be some issues between the two teammates and that adds even more to the Monaco race and Hamilton comes in after winning the last four races on the schedule and Rosberg won the first in Australia.
Rosberg had to deal with an investigation from the stewards and that should add another layer of drama for the Saturday event. Rosberg had to sit through he chance of losing out on the pole but he was cleared after the stewards looked into what happened when he moved to the escape road and locked up on his qualifying run and that stopped his teammate from getting in his position.
Hamilton has looked very good leading up to the race and the tough thing will be overcoming that nine of the last 10 races at Monaco have had the winner from the pole spot. Hamilton is looking for his fifth straight win and the Grand Prix Of Canada is the next race in June on the schedule. Rosberg apologized for the incident and now the two will be going head to head for the win and the standings coming into the race has Hamilton in first by three points over Rosberg and the two drivers are over Fernando Alonso in third by a wide margin.
Monaco is live on NBC and NBCSN online starting up at 8 am ET and the race is also streaming from the main Sports Network website.
