In 2018, Monaco will feature brand new pit-lane facilities, replacing the current tight and packed areas the teams have to work with. Monaco is notorious for the lack of space in the pit-lane, so much so, that all the command centres are inside, rather than the other side of the track.
The changes were hoped to be introduced for this year's event, but engineers said they weren't sure if it would be done on time. Bild newspaper states: "Monaco wanted to prepare the new pitlane for 2017, but engineers were unable to guarantee they would finish it in time. So the project was postponed to 2018."
The Automobile Club de Monaco's Richard Micoud confirmed: "Yes, it's true. The new pit building will be two-storey. Teams will finally have more space and will not be tripping over their feet."
