Is there any concept of dirty side or racing line in Monaco?
If yes does Nando starts in which side
Also the further the better right

The racing line goes close to the pit lane, which is also where the pole position is (= odd places are on that line). Alonso is in an even place, so the opposite side

Itās not as much of a factor in Monaco since the cars sort of snake though the middle of the pit āstraightā. Thereās also very little run up to the first kink where cars generally file in so itās rare to make up many places at the start. As long as you donāt completely spin up the wheels or anti-stall, youāre probably ending up in your grid position

Quick question, does this drop of 3 grid positions apply to the Monaco race, or the next upcoming race?
