Aston Martin reserve driver Stoffel Vandoorne criticized the level of racing at the Monaco Grand Prix, calling it “boring,” questioning whether the famed street circuit has outgrown Formula 1. Vandoorne, a Formula E racer, compared the excitement of racing in Monaco in the two series, favoring the all-electric championship for its overtaking opportunities and track size. F1 cars have grown larger over the years, making overtaking even more challenging at the tight street circuit, highlighting the importance of qualifying and race strategy. As Monaco prepares for its 82nd GP, the FIA has introduced a new rule mandating a minimum of two pit stops to enhance the on-track action. The debate continues among fans and drivers about Monaco’s future in motor racing and whether other racing series hold the key to its relevance and entertainment value.
