Monaco GP: Did the two-stop rule work?

THE RACE MEDIA LTD
About this episode

Edd Straw is joined by Mark Hughes and Scott Mitchell-Malm to unpick the extreme strategy battle that was the Monaco Grand Prix.


The rule that forced two pitstops in the race was the big talking point heading into the weekend - but did it work, given the top four on the grid - Lando Norris, Charles Leclerc, Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen - finished in that order?


Edd, Mark and Scott also discuss the 'road block' tactics used by the likes of Racing Bulls and Williams to secure big points, plus - as ever - they answer a host of questions about the race sent in by The Race Members' Club.
