Pirelli, the Formula 1 tyre supplier, has expressed openness to introducing two mandatory pit stops per race as part of the 2026 rule changes.
The proposal is aimed at increasing on-track excitement, creating more strategic options for teams, and adding unpredictability to race outcomes.
Discussions are ongoing with the FIA and F1 stakeholders to explore how the rule could be implemented, while considering tyre performance, safety, and overall race dynamics.
The change could significantly influence team strategies, pit stop timing, and tyre management in future seasons.
