Tips en trucs
With its narrow streets and tight turns, there’s not much room for overtaking at Monaco, putting even greater emphasis on high placement in qualifying.
- Switch to fresh soft tyres with each attempt in qualifying; fractions of a second can get you a higher placement on the starting grid.
- Cars that corner well at low and medium speeds have a significant advantage at Monaco, as there is little opportunity to reach top speed.
- You will likely only stop once, so opening on soft tyres and driving aggressively gives the best chance to secure overtakes while drivers are bunched up.
