The FIA&#39s latest stunt: at least two pit stops at Monte Carlo

The first session of the FIA Council of 2025 with the members of the WSMC was held today by videoconference and the most important decision that was made concerns the Monaco Grand Prix at the Monte Carlo circuit.

È in fact, it has been decided that yes each driver will have to make at least two pit stops over the entire race. Not only that, each will have to use all three compounds available for that weekend.

All with the usual, cloying justification that is given every time these “innovations” are introduced: to increase the spectacle during the race.

According to the FIA then, in a race where it è very difficult to overtake, if not impossible (at least for today’s cars), pit stops would liven it up. We’ll see if it really will be soè.

Ferrari, Charles Leclerc cautious but satisfied

Charles Leclerc è was among the protagonists of the first day of pre-season testing in Barhain: the Ferrarista ended the session with the fourth fastest time. Here are the words of the Monegasque.

“È nice to be back on track. The whole team has put maximum effort into the SF-25 project during the winter break, so it è exciting to finally be able to start pushing with the car”.

“&It is always good to have a smooth session without any unpleasant surprises affecting the work program. That said, è it is still too early to draw conclusions about our performance. We will analyze today’s data well and use what we learned tonight when we resume work tomorrow”.

Parma, double renewal in defense

Parma has made official a double renewal in defense. “Parma Calcio announces that Alessandro Circati has extended his contract until June 30, 2029” reads the statement published by the Giallobl&ugrave club, which was followed shortly after by another: “Parma Calcio announces that Giovanni Leoni has extended his contract until June 30, 2029”.

A journey, that of the Australian national and Parma Calcio, which began in February 2021 in the ranks of the Primavera team and continued brilliantly in the First Team, where the defender made his debut in the Serie B championship. In the 2023-24 season, Circati è established himself definitively, showcasing strength and talent, winning through hard work a starting shirt and playing a key role in the promotion to Serie A.

“I am very happy for the renewal, with Parma and with the Gialloblu fans I have a beautiful relationship – Circati told the channels of the ducal club -. Here I feel all the affection necessary to continue to do well. I thank the Directors and especially President Kyle J. Krause for the trust they are showing me at a very special time for me, such as this. I look forward to getting back to playing together with my teammates to help them achieve our goal”.

Arriving in’August 2024, the talented defender immediately proved his worth, making his debut with great personality in Serie A against Venezia and embellishing his journey with a historic achievement: thanks to the goal scored against Cagliari, è he became the youngest Parma Calcio defender to score in the top league, at just 18 years and 50 days old. An achievement that testifies to Giovanni’s determination, in a path of exponential growth, where the gifts and potential of a champion are exalted.

“I have only been in Parma for a few months, but I already feel it as my home – Leoni’s words. I really like the city and our fans are extraordinary. I felt a great emotion on the day of my debut in Serie A and I am convinced that this club is the best to be able to grow and enhance the work I do with the team every day. With this opportunity, I want to thank President Kyle J. Krause and the whole Club for the opportunity they have given me”.
