This year’s Monaco GP will be a mandatory two-stop race to add more excitement after a lackluster finish in 2024. Button predicts some drivers will pit on the first lap, creating diverse strategies. The new rule requires drivers to use at least three sets of tires, with penalties for non-compliance. While Button and Lewis Hamilton support the change, some, like Ted Kravitz, view it as a gimmick. The mandatory two-stop rule aims to shake up the Monaco Grand Prix and deliver thrilling racing action.
