After the technical Imola, the Formula 1 circus moves on to one of the most iconic races of the year: the Monaco Grand Prix. The narrow streets of Monte Carlo set the stage for pure precision, where every mistake is ruthlessly punished. The street circuit through the principality is notorious for its tight corners, lack of overtaking opportunities, and unforgettable atmosphere. Below you will find the full schedule for the weekend of May 23 to 25.
This year, the Monaco GP undergoes a significant rule change: for the first time, two mandatory pit stops during the race have been introduced. This measure, approved by the FIA and the FOM, is intended to strengthen the strategic element of the race and create more action on the track. Drivers must use at least three different sets of tires during the race, with at least two different compounds in dry conditions. This change is specific to Monaco, where overtaking is difficult due to the narrow street circuit. The new rule is a response to previous races where the lack of pit stops led to little dynamism on Sunday. With this adjustment, the FIA hopes to make the race more exciting and unpredictable.
