The Formula 1 Commission has entered discussions over increasing the number of mandatory pit stops to spice up the Monaco Grand Prix.
As F1 cars become longer, heavier, and wider, the Monaco GP on its tight streets has lost some of its excitement. In 2024, pole-sitter Charles Leclerc managed to secure a hometown victory despite minimal overtaking and a lackluster race. Amid concerns, the F1 Commission is looking to revitalize the event through increased pit stops to enhance the spectacle and competitiveness. The proposal aims to introduce Monaco-specific regulations to promote better racing and engagement for the fans. The long-term future of the Monaco GP is secured until 2031, providing a platform for ongoing discussions and improvements to keep the race captivating. Further details on the potential changes will be shared following consultations with the Sporting Advisory Committee in the upcoming weeks.
