Formula 1 Monaco Grand Prix prepares drivers with 78 of the most difficult rolls in the calendar, because it is escalating by some of the most famous scenes in motorsport with walls – and danger – waving on the horizon at every corner.
However, the F1 eternity awaits at the end of those 78 rolls to increase the hair.
However, recent years have made the race itself from a procession. Make the current generation of cars, the huge size, exceeding the impossibility of close in the same race. To improve the “race scene”, the governing body has set a new base of the Monaco Grand Prix Award this year, which means that drivers will have to conduct two mandatory stations, using three different groups of tires, and if the race is operated in dry conditions, they must use at least different frame vehicles.
If you have heard the phrase “journey of discovery” before the F1 race before, you will hear it more today.
Lando Norris occupied the position of the pole in the Grand Monaco race today with a busy record on Saturday, but how today’s race reveals the guessing of anyone.
Below is a look at the possible Monaco Grand PRIX 2025 tire strategies.
What is the new bilateral base for the Great Monaco race?
In most races, drivers must use two different tire compounds, which means that this is required to stop at least one hole.
The Great Monaco race this year is different. Drivers are now required to make two different hole stations and use three different groups of tires. The component base remains, which means that the difference can theoretically use a soft Midium Midium or a quiet strategy.
But they will have to stop at least twice.
What happened in last year’s race?
Last year’s race may be the “straw that broke the back of the sentences” when it comes to the new rule. After years of discussion on how to improve the Grand Prix in Monaco, 2024 began to break down the opening roll that included Niko Holkenburg and Kevin Magnousen and Sergio Perez. The huge three -way shift covered the first sector in the debris, which removed the red flag.
When the session resumed, the entire field turned into a solid frame, the front contestants went to the rest of the road on this compound, managed their tires and maintaining speeds. As a result, the race took a feeling of more review than anything else, as the Charles Charles field followed around the streets of Monte Carlo.
I spoke to Oscar BiastryWho finished second last year, in the days after the Grand Prix race in Monaco.
“It is very difficult [to overtake in Monaco]. I think for me that the difficult thing is that while I was behind Charles on a lot of the race, it was not because it was slow, “PiaSSTRI started.
“So it is not like another place where they have clear strengths and weaknesses and you can prepare them somewhat [for an overtake]. For him, if he wants to go faster, he may have, literally, depending on what he wants to do with his right foot, “the McLaren driver added:” So it made it difficult too. “
PiaSSTRI admitted that he made one attempt, but then reviewed the race, he admitted that it was difficult to make a sticky stick.
“I once tried to the eighth round to try to get it. But, yes, I saw him again and to be honest, I was beyond what I thought. So it wasn’t certain that he did not work. But yes, this is the nature of Monaco only.”
What tires do each driver is available?
Although we usually look at strategy options first, it may be logical this week to start with the tires that each driver is available.
Here is this drawing, with the permission of Albert Fabrega:
Interestingly, while most teams have two new sets of tires from different vehicle ranges, Aston Martin will use some of the groups that were cleaned on Sunday. Fernando Alonso has two steel sets, a group of medium tires C5, and three groups of soft c6 tires.
As for Lance Stroll, it has two groups of C4 solid tires, one set of media, and two sets of sofa, along with a pair of fresh C6 frames.
In the front of the network, OSCar PiaSSTRI and Lando Norris contain two new sets of solid tires and a new set of C5 medium tires. Charles Leclerc, which begins alongside Norris in P2, has a new steel c4 frame, along with a new C5 collection, and the C5 group used. As for Max Verstapen, which was promoted to P4 after the three -place network to Luis Hamilton, it has a new set of C4 Hards, a new set of C5 media, and four soft groups used.
Mario Isola, the director of motorsport in Perrylli, Propagate The soft frame C6 will have to play on Sunday.
“All three vehicles will enter a playing role: in fact, drivers are of three teams, Red Bull, Racing Bulls, and SAUBER, they have only one set of solid tires and one of the medium, so C6 must be used during the race,” Ilaa said in the post -rehabilitation Pireli report.
What are the strategy options?
genuinely?
who knows?
In their report after rehabilitationBerili indicated that there are “many theoretical possibilities” available for the teams.
“In terms of strategy, tomorrow’s race will be once,” said Isola. “The changes in the sport regulations that were specially provided for this grand prize require the use of at least three groups of tires, which means that anything possible in terms of the windows of the hole, given that there is already a lot of theoretical possibilities, not to mention the appearances of the safety car that is likely to be in this path.”
One of the possibilities, especially for the teams in the back of the network, is the start of the race in one boat, a hole at the end of the 1 to move to a second boat, and the hole on the 2 roll to switch to the solid frame – that we saw a year ago can go away – and last for as long as possible.
The teams at the front of the network may want to start the soft frame and pay for a short and short period, and here’s the reason:
Running from the start/end line to the first rotation, and devotes Sainte, one of the shortest season, which covers about 150 meters. However, this is one of the best sites to overcome the entire circle, so getting a strong launch at the turn 1 may be it is very important for drivers in the foreground.
What do drivers expect?
Like those of us outside, those who will climb to cars later the day are not sure of what can be expected from the Grand Monaco race this year.
“I don’t have any idea. Norris said after the qualifiers When asked about the amount of the job he performed in terms of percentage. “I would have felt greater if that was the rules of last year, but it is clear that things had changed.
“I think it will be a little chaos tomorrow, but we will see how it is running. I think there will be a lot of strategic games, and we will see who is at the forefront. But I think we may be under pressure from cars that we do not expect, from behind, which may make everything interesting.”
“I don’t think anyone really knows what to expect,” said Pasri.
Later at FIA’s press conference, Leclerc used the word “unknown” when talking about the base, and the importance of running from line to floor 1 in SAINTE.
“Yes, as I used to say earlier, I think it’s very difficult to know what to expect. I think we are all a little bit to the unknown. More stations mean more opportunities,” added Leclerc. “I don’t think it will change what is happening in its role 1, the roll 1. I think this will be very similar to any other year because it will be of the same importance. But then, we will have to see with the hole stopping.
“I don’t think there will be anything surprising in higher situations. I think there will be some things that are likely to be surprising at the back, and this may affect the higher positions. So yes, I don’t know.
“You will be interesting.”
