United States GP Strategy Guide
Lewis Hamilton, Valtteri Bottas and Sebastian Vettel will start the United States Grand Prix on the fastest strategy, according to tyre supplier Pirelli. Although Ferrari have started Raikkonen on the second-fastest set-up, the Scuderia will hope that the Finn can take advantage of softer tyres to upset the Silver Arrows.
Strategy for #USGP @COTA: quickest is a one-stopper. Initial stint on supersoft for 18-24 laps then soft to the finish. Slightly slower is this: start on ultrasoft for 14-20 laps then soft to the flag. Clearly slower: start on ultrasoft for 20-25 laps then soft to the flag. #F1 — Pirelli Motorsport (@pirellisport) October 21, 2018
You’re going to run out of places to keep these @pirellisport tyres if you’re not careful, @LewisHamilton ????
