F1 CHAOS AT MONACO: THE AFTERMATH AND WHO’S TO BLAME
The 2025 Monaco Grand Prix left fans in an uproar, with many deeming it a “farce” and “catastrophic.” The race, featuring two mandatory pit stops, took unexpected turns, drawing criticism from both hardcore fans and casual viewers alike.
While some appreciated the uncertainty the race brought, others were quick to point out the unsporting tactics employed by teams to secure their positions. The Monaco-specific rule, proposed by Ferrari team boss Frederic Vasseur, mandated two pit stops, adding a new layer of complexity to the prestigious event.
As Max Verstappen fought to maintain his lead on deteriorating tires, tensions ran high until the very end. However, the lack of overtaking opportunities in Monaco led to a procession-like race, leaving fans and drivers alike frustrated with the limited action on track.
The aftermath of the Grand Prix saw Charles Leclerc reflecting on Ferrari’s performance, highlighting the team’s struggles to compete for top positions in the championship. With McLaren leading the constructors’ championship and Ferrari falling behind, Vasseur faces mounting pressure to turn the team’s fortunes around before the new regulations come into effect in 2026.
The Monaco Grand Prix may have ended, but the repercussions of the chaotic race are far from over. As the F1 community grapples with the aftermath, one question lingers – who will take responsibility for the mayhem at Monaco, and what changes are needed to prevent a repeat in the future?
