F1, the FIA and the 10 teams agreed to introduce two mandatory stops for this year’s Grand Prix to try and improve the on-track spectacle.

Formula 1 drivers believe it should be accepted that the Monaco Grand Prix will always be boring, and that it has to be appreciated for what it is. The Monte Carlo race produced another dull event last weekend despite the attempt to spice it up with a mandatory two-stop rule.

Although native-Monegasque Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc tried to temper expectations for the weekend, the Ferraris were in a good place in Monaco. With no fast corners, the team could run the car low to the ground without risking a penalty, and this year's car is very good at low-speed corners, of which Monaco has plenty.
