They should let them race at Monaco. Maybe with the slightly smaller cars they could actually pass each other.

One of the most stupid aspects of F1 Academy is the calendar. By having them drive on mainly overseas tracks, they miss out on experience on tracks where they would need it once they move up to Formula Regional or even higher series.

Not important in the era of simulators to learn tracks.

I dont think Formula Regional has a lot of high class simulator time and availability for its drivers

Monaco has always been a shit race, even back to the 60s.

If F1 Acadamy manages to be the best racing event of the weekend at Monoco, it would force the FIA to acknowledge it should have been removed from the calendar 10 years ago.
