Strategy guide
Win more races: when to pit, which tyres to fit, how the undercut and overcut work, managing fuel and battery, wet-weather calls and safety car strategy.
Pick the right tyre
Start on the compound that gets you to your planned stop window. Watch the wear: once a tyre passes its cliff, lap times fall away quickly.
The undercut and the overcut
Pit before a rival and use fresh tyres to jump them: that is the undercut. Stay out longer in clean air and hope old tyres hold on: that is the overcut. Traffic decides which one works.
Weather and safety cars
Switch to intermediates when the track is damp and wets when water stands. A safety car makes a pit stop cheaper, so be ready to react.
