Formula 1 is considering introducing an extra mandatory pitstop at the Monaco Grand Prix to enhance the excitement during the iconic street race.

In case of wet weather, a proposal for a two-stop race with rain tires is also being considered. While no firm rule change was approved yet, the proposal will be reviewed by F1’s Sporting Advisory Committee for further consideration. The lack of excitement in Monaco Grand Prix has triggered discussions on how to improve overtaking opportunities and overall race experience for viewers and participants. Teams are open to shaking things up to make the Monaco Grand Prix more thrilling and challenging for drivers.
