As the Formula One fraternity heads to Monaco for the sixth round of the 2016 season, McLaren-Honda are sensing an opportunity.

With lingering concerns over the performance of their V6 turbo power unit, the tight, twisty streets of Monte Carlo should play to the strengths of the team's MP4-31 chassis and allow McLaren to extend their run of top-10 finishes.

But the Woking-based outfit are not just targeting points at the principality, with racing director Eric Boullier explaining why Fernando Alonso and Jenson Button can beat the Ferraris of Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen on merit.

While McLaren are hoping to take their chances in Monaco, Daniel Ricciardo is still reflecting on the one that got away.

The Australian had comfortably led the opening stages of the recent Spanish Grand Prix, only for Red Bull's strategic error to leave him stranded in fourth as Max Verstappen won his debut race for the team.

Although Ricciardo is happy Red Bull have returned to the top step of the podium for the first time since 2014, he admits he is struggling to balance collective delight with personal disappointment.

As Verstappen eased to his first career victory at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, Daniil Kvyat was left to wonder whether it should have been him.

The Russian was replaced by Verstappen following his first-lap meltdown at his home race, and while Kvyat is willing to embrace the atmosphere of his new team, Toro Rosso, he has warned Red Bull he will never forget their harsh treatment of him.

Elsewhere, Sauber boss Monisha Kaltenborn has spoken of her optimism that the team's financial worries will be eased in the near future, with Rio Haryanto also hoping to raise enough cash to secure his seat at Manor for the rest of 2016.

Here's this week's roundup.
