Already seen on Thursday in the paddock, Ferrari F1 driver Charles Leclerc came back on Friday to spend a long moment talking to Jean Alesi, who had finished adjusting is position in the Ferrari 312 B3 that he will drive all week-end. There was also a short filming session scheduled for the mid-day pause, for a few laps without any stress, before the first practice session in the afternoon. René Arnoux will drive the other 312 B3 entered in this Race F and he cannot wait to take the track : « The tarmac is better than before, the tyres are better than before, so we shall enjoy more grip », Arnoux smiled before sliding into the cockpit. He started on pole at Monaco in 1982, in a Renault with a turbo engine.
