F1’s governing body the FIA has announced 𒈔the Monaco Grand Prix will become a mandatory two💫-stop race.

The change will come into effect from this year’s grand prix and force drivers to ཧmake at least two ♍stops, if its a dry race.

It comes as F1 tries to spi𒁏ce up the Monaco Grand Prix amid growing criticism in recent years.

The proposal was agreed upon by team bosses during a me💝eting of the F1 Commission last week but the changes have now been formally green-lit at the first World Motorsport Council of the year on Wednesday.

An FIA statement read: “The WMSC reviewed a proposal regarding the implementation of a mandatory 2-stop strategy (in both wet and dry conditions) f♔or the Monaco GP, with the primary intent of improving the sporting spectacle of ⛎this race.

“Following recent discussions in the F1 Commission, a specific requirement for the Monaco GP has been approved mandating the use of at least three sets of tyres in the race, with a minimum of two different tyr🃏e compounds to be used if it’s a dry race.”

At last year’s race, Max Verstappen, who fin꧟ished sixth for Red Bull, complained over team radio: “F*** me, this is really boring... I should’ve brought my pillow”.

Verstappen later added: “Overall the weekend is really cool, just the Sunday is a little bit boring unfortunately, but the scene🌳ry is still great.

"Iꦕf we can find a way to race a bit better, why not?💯 That would be my preferred solution."

This year’s Monaco Grand Prix ta𝐆kes place on 23-25 May.
