Rear Wing Report

In this episode, we dissect the 2025 Monaco Grand Prix drama. Lando Norris clinched a commanding victory, narrowing Oscar Piastri's championship lead to just three points. Charles Leclerc delighted his home crowd with a solid second-place finish, signaling a potential resurgence for Ferrari.

We delve into Max Verstappen's bold strategy that saw him stay out on worn tires, hoping for a timely safe car. The gamble didn't pay off, resulting in a drop from first to fourth. Meanwhile, George Russell's decision to overtake Alex Albon by cutting the chicane earned him a drive-through penalty, pushing him out of the points.

The midfield battle was intense, with Williams and Racing Bulls executing team strategies that stirred controversy. Williams' tactics, in particular, drew criticism for manipulating race pace to benefit their lead driver.

We also assess the effectiveness of the new two-stop regulation introduced to spice up the Monaco race. Did it enhance the spectacle or fall flat?

Finally, we review our race predictions, highlight the standout and underwhelming performances, and preview the upcoming Spanish Grand Prix.
