Monaco Grand Prix: What next for F1's iconic event as new 2025 rules fail to spark better racing at street circuit

After an attempt to improve the spectacle of the Monaco Grand Prix failed on Sunday, the debate is already under way on what should happen next year at Formula 1's most famous race.

In a bid to improve racing at what is by far the calendar's tightest track, the governing FIA introduced a unique new rule for this year's event which required each driver to race with three different tyre sets, essentially mandating two pit-stops.

It is also notable that Pirelli's new for 2025 softest tyre compound was being used and failed to have the same positive impact it did at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix a week earlier, showing that an even more dramatic step would need to be taken in that department to change things.
