Join RacingNews365’s Ian Parkes, Sam Coop and Nick Golding as they look ahead to this weekend’s Monaco Grand Prix! Lewis Hamilton having a huge chance of victory is a key talking point, as is the fact Red Bull are likely to face a very difficult event.Also in this week’s podcast, the trio discuss all the rule changes being introduced to Monaco, whether McLaren are a dark horse for victory and if Kimi Antonelli can start the European leg of the season in strong fashion. The impressive Franco Colapinto is also discussed.
Max Verstappen is at a major disadvantage under new F1 regulations because the changes have shifted the balance of power towards teams with bigger budgets. This puts Red Bull, Verstappen’s team, at a disadvantage compared to competitors like Mercedes and Ferrari. The new regulations have also introduced technical changes that may not play to Verstappen’s strengths as a driver. Additionally, the limited testing and development time due to COVID-19 restrictions have made it harder for teams to adapt to the new rules, further disadvantaging Verstappen. Despite these challenges, Verstappen’s talent and determination could still see him overcome these obstacles and compete at the highest level in Formula 1.
