Haryanto seeks to do well at unforgiving Monaco Grand Prix.
SEMARANG -- Indonesian Formula One Driver Rio Haryanto is ready for this weekend's Monaco Grand Prix circuit in Monte Carlo, hopeful of a better performance with his Manor Racing team on the very demanding street circuit of Monte Carlo.
"It requires every bit of your focus because it's such an unforgiving track. The proximity of the barriers means that one tiny mistake can be very costly. But it can also be very rewarding if you get it right," Rio Haryanto was quoted as saying by his Media Relations Cep Goldia here Wednesday.
The 23-year-old driver stood on the podium of Monaco Grand Prix back in 2014 when he raced in the GP2 Series.
"It's a unique experience, which I know from racing here in GP2. I've actually been on the podium in Monaco after finishing in the third place in 2014 and the atmosphere and sense of that occasion was incredible," Haryanto recalled.
Haryanto knows that he has to be realistic for this weekend's grand prix as the race creates opp ortunities like no other, "particularly if it rains, which at the moment figures in the forecast for Sunday."
Meanwhile, Race Director of Manor Racing, Dave Ryan, promised that his two racers will give their best during the race that also demands a very challenging set-up for the cars.
The sixth race of the 2016 Formula One season will be held on Sunday (May 29) at 02:00 pm local time along the 3,337 km street circuit of Monte Carlo.
The Monaco Grand Prix is the one race of the year that every driver dreams of winning.
A combination of precision driving, technical excellence and sheer bravery is required to win in Monte Carlo, facets which highlight the differences between the great and the good in Formula One.
The Armco barrier-lined circuit leaves no margin for error, demanding more concentration than any other Formula One track.
Cars run with maximum downforce and brakes are worked hard.
Overtaking is next to impossible, making qualifying in Monaco more critical than at any other Grand Prix.
