F1 in limbo as pitstops’ future uncertain
Formula 1 is currently undecided on whether to implement mandatory two-stop races in the future after a failed attempt at the Monaco Grand Prix to improve the on-track action.
The idea was to introduce more varied race strategies, but critics argue that it could actually diminish the excitement of the races.
McLaren’s team principal, Andrea Stella, highlighted the need for careful consideration in making decisions about mandatory pit stops.
Following discussions in a recent F1 Commission meeting in London, no concrete decisions were reached regarding mandatory two-stop races, with further talks planned for the 2026 season.
Additionally, changes in liveries and driver numbers were announced for the upcoming season to enhance the visual appeal of the sport.
