Sergio Perez believes that the Nouvelle chicane on the Monaco Grand Prix circuit needs some rethinking, after his move on Kevin Magnussen was ruined after the Dane cut the chicane.

Magnussen received a five second penalty for his actions, but it was no consolation for Perez, who told Autosport: “It’s very disappointing, you only have one move in Monaco, and you do it and the car ahead cuts the chicane, and then he’s aware that you’re there and there’s no more opportunities.

“It’s definitely something we’ve got to speak about.

“In all fairness to the car ahead he gives space but then he has nowhere to go.

“I think there has to be a little chicane for the people who cut the chicane to lose some time.

“It’s something we have to review over the next couple of races.”
