“Formula 1 races in Monaco this weekend with new tyre rules to spice up the action. Teams must now make two pitstops during the race, using three sets of tyres across two compounds. The rule change has divided drivers and teams, with some seeing it as an opportunity for more exciting racing while others remain skeptical.
Drivers like Nico Hulkenberg and Yuki Tsunoda are curious to see the impact of the new rules on the race. There are concerns about teams using strategic sacrifices to benefit certain drivers. However, some, like Carlos Sainz and Oscar Piastri, see the potential for a more complicated and unpredictable race.
Max Verstappen and George Russell are optimistic that the two-stop strategy could prevent the usual procession in Monaco and create more excitement. Fernando Alonso also believes that the rule change could bring a positive transformation to the race, adding to the uncertainty and excitement for fans.”
