yeah - Alonso knows there is a very high risk in overtaking in Monaco - so why stress the tyres at their early point when they need to go long on the actual race - in the end he was proved to be correct, and could pull away to a 4 to 5 second at the end.
just look at the front runners for tyre deg and pushing hard issues!
