Hamilton has crashed at Monaco once and so has Alonso. Even the great Schumacher has crashed there. Come to think of it hasn't Jenson had a crash there where he was nearly very badly injured? Button also crashed out of the 2002 race, and the following year did not start due to a crash the previous day. All apart from Vettel are Monaco winners I must remind you..

So no Vettel and Hamilton don't tend to bang the walls, just like Jenson is not prone to forgetting to brake coming out of the tunnel.
In 2008, Lewis banged the wall and had to pit for a new wheel - it was only because of the safety car that the difference was neutralized and he was able to continue and win. And then there was the 2009 Q1 nonsense.

Vettel does tend to crash at vital moments similar to Hamilton - Monte Carlo 2009.

In 2002 at Saint Devote, Jense was overtaking Panis who did not see him, kept to the normal line and collided with Button.

2003 he touched the barrier exiting the tunnel and had a very big accident.

My point is TENDENCY. Jenson has participated at Monte Carlo many more times than either Vettel or Hamilton so his ratio of scenery meetings is much lower.

Hamilton's is pretty high as is Vettel's.
