Going to go out on a limb here and suggest the new plan didn’t go so well…
Dre, RJ and Cam discuss the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix, as Lando Norris turned over the fastest lap in track history and handled the inevitable traffic to take a comfortable victory and reduce his Championship arrears to just three points heading into a critical race in Spain this weekend.
But the big talk was the mandatory pitstops. The FIA implemented two mandatory pitstops across the 78 laps, and it led to some action that some called farcical. With Racing Bulls figuring out the gameplan was simply “back the wagon up and let your teammate get a free stop”, they managed to get both cars well into the points, with Williams and Mercedes following suit, including George Russell intentionally cutting the chicane and picking up a Drive Through Penalty.
Did it work? And if it didn’t, what do we do with Monaco at large? Do we move on from the race after being on the calendar since Day 1? Do we just accept that there’s no salvaging this place? Or, do we do something even more radical? Dre has an idea…
