Words and hats may have to be eaten along with the usual canapes and caviar if Lewis Hamilton wins the glamour race of the Formula One season in Monaco this weekend.The skeptics who doubted McLaren's 2008 world champion would stand on top of the podium this season after his move to Mercedes face a moment of truth with Hamilton's team arriving in the Mediterranean principality on the back of three pole positions in a row.Mercedes have faded in races so far, unable to control their car's insatiable appetite for tires on a Sunday afternoon,gucci outlet, but Monaco's tight and treacherous streets are kinder on the compounds.Hamilton, a winner in what is now his home in 2008, loves the historic circuit that winds up through Casino square and blasts down through the echoing tunnel and out along the harborside and the ranks of swaying super-yachts.Champions Red Bull have won the jackpot for the past three years, with Australian Mark Webber triumphant in 2012 after also winning in 2010, but Mercedes' qualifying form threatens their run of success."They (Mercedes) will arrive as favorites for Monaco," said Ferrari's Fernando Alonso."They've been on pole position for the last three races, they were on pole last year with Michael's (Schumacher) lap, so it would be a surprise if they weren't on pole position in Monaco."And it's more difficult to overtake in Monaco, so maybe they can keep good positions for longer."Hamilton's teammate Nico Rosberg will be just as much of a threat, with the German - who grew up in Monaco with the circuit part of his daily journey to school - chasing a hat trick of poles after Bahrain and Spain.Red Bull's triple champion Sebastian Vettel leads the standings after five races, four points ahead of Lotus' Kimi Raikkonen and 17 clear of Alonso in third place.The tires should be less of a problem than in Spain, where four pit stops were the norm and a shocked Hamilton sank from second on the grid to 12th at the checkered flag, although debris damage will still be a concern. Suppliers Pirelli, who have brought their softest tires to the race, expect drivers to have to make no more than two visits to the pits.Hamilton left Spain too stunned to focus on Monaco but a sponsor trip to the US and a visit to Le Mans to watch the French MotoGP race last weekend are sure to have revived his spirits.Monaco is the date on the calendar he has been looking forward to more than most.
