The Hungarian Grand Prix was weird. Strategies seemed to get a bit loosey goosey. So let's use this opportunity to look at exactly what goes into a race strategy.

Ferrari have three strategists. One who decides when to pit, one who decides which tyre to use, and one who is keeping an eye on what is happening on track. They had a bit of a falling out a couple years ago and are no longer on speaking terms.

You missed the Haas being first to find out just how garbage the hards were to race on due to Kmag's insatiable meatball craving and yet STILL putting them on Mick's car (despite having the extra set of mediums) to ruin his race after a great first stint. It's even more shocking than Ferrari's blunder. Also, AM having Seb hold station behind a slower Lance for ~10 laps, leaving him no time to overtake the hards in front when they finally let him past. He could've gotten both Alpines and maybe even Norris otherwise

[@AbsoleteAim]

To be fair to Stroll his race was already ruined when he got hit by Ric. AM should've definitely let Seb past eventually, though.

Ferrari weren't the only team had horrible strategy today Alpine and Bottas strategy also pretty bad to be honest as they went on hard tyre, while hard had a horrible traction and at lap 66(I think), from being inside top 10 they are nowhere as Alpine was 10-15s behind Norris while Bottas is dropped to 12th(He retired due to mechanical failure) In the end 8th place Alonso only finish nearly 3s ahead of Vettel from being at least 15-20s ahead of him

[@aslanazizov5586]

Ferrari: Why not?

[@Septimus_ii]

The screens haven't arrived yet, so their strategists still don't know what's happening in the race

[@Numfuddle]

I listened to a lot of the Pit channels during races and Sebastian Vettel was at some point basically running the Ferrari strategy from his cockpit. Constantly inquiring about weather and track conditions, tire health, track position of other cars and delta times. Suggesting alternative tire and pit strategies etc. He communicated a lot more with his team than other drivers. This in addition to the already high Workflows drivers already have during a race. He sometimes even overrode what his pit wall ordered/suggested him to do usually his idea of a strategy worked out better. You could tell that he didn’t trust his pit wall to make the right calls. Incidents like the one in Hungary show why

The Red Bulls, Mercedes, and Lando Norris looked like absolute rock stars at the Hungarian Grand Prix. 1:50 It’s interesting to think that Horner expected Max to go from P10 to P5 because under those targets both Red Bull drivers really delivered as Max ended up P1 and Sergio was able to go from P11 to P5 whilst still protecting Max’s pitstops from both Mercedes and Ferarri’s on track. Lando Norris gets P7 best of the rest while Denial Riccardo is P15 with zero points.

[@luuduonghy659]

Only for Hamilton

[@Septimus_ii]

There's enough of a gap between Red Bull and the midfield that they would be extremely dissappointed to have either driver finish outside the top 6. I think with Ferrari's blunders P3 and P5 or P2 and P5 were well within reach. But getting the race win and a comfortable race win was really a show of force from Max. There's also the question of whether Ferrari would have panicked so much if it weren't for Max's outstanding performance

[@junsengjs]

Ferrari had the chance to have their drivers on different strategies as well, either could have been on the S-M-M strategy like Max/Perez and the other on M-M-S like Hamilton, they instead had both drivers on the same strategy. The situation of Mclaren and Alonso with the hards brought up a very good point. Mclaren didn't have a second set and HAD to factor in the hards since they didn't have enough tires. Alonso used the hards, but they correctly used the strength of the hards, they did a one-stop which is what the hards allowed them to do. But Ferrari with Leclerc, they forced themselves to react to the cars on DIFFERENT strategies than them, and effectively played themselves into a corner when they reacted to Max's 2nd pit. They could have just kept Leclerc out for longer so the softs can survive the 3rd stint, but they wanted to react to Max's pit. They got what they wanted, they came out in front of Max after the pit, then Max just overtook Leclerc anyway since the hards were trash.

[@mrdraw2087]

True, but because they still had to use the softs, they were going to lose track position to Verstappen anyway, which is not something that's supposed to happen when you start that much in front. It seems Ferrari's Russell-beating strategy left them vulnerable to Verstappen.

[@tbz1551]

[@Trendyflute]

Great explanation on the tire compounds, one thing though is the working temp ranges don't necessarily linearly go up with compound hardness, Pirelli has tended to alternate high- and low-working range tires in the range throughout history; when the compounds were named (HS-US-SS-S-M-H-EH) the US-S-H tires were low working range and the HS-SS-M-EH tires were high working range (or maybe it was the other way around), and then the softness is built into the tire for its working range. Not sure if Pirelli is still doing that anymore but I would guess they are, to offer a variety of working ranges to teams when they select 3 out of 5 compounds.

The Red Bull strategy really paid off handsomely. Verstappen was able to quickly pass the midfield cars (the Alpines offered some resistance, while Norris' softs were gone within ten laps for some reason) and then he was able to undercut Hamilton at the first round of stops and Russell at the second round. Ferrari tried to cover him by pitting Leclerc early, but this backfired greatly as we know. Sainz decided to go much longer, so he lost track position to Verstappen as well, and he didn't really have the pace to regain it. Instead, he also lost a place to Hamilton, who was on even fresher tires at the end. Sainz would later say he just didn't have the pace, which seems right. Leclerc was faster in the race and with Sainz' strategy he might have been able to challenge Verstappen for the win, though his pace on the softs was not very impressive either.

I need to say something. When I watch all these videos and comments constantly mocking and analyzing Ferrari, I feel it makes everybody else irrelevant. Instead of praising Red Bull and Verstappen, people focus more on Ferrari and their problems. And have you realized that Mercedes still hasn't won a race this year? Somehow nobody finds that shocking, despite Mercedes being a dominant force in the last couple of years. Yet when they start to lose, nobody cares about that. As if all the wins from the past suddenly never happened. It just shows what a brand Ferrari is. No matter whether they win or lose, they get all the attention. Maybe when Verstappen wins the title, not many people will even notice it, because they will all start analyzing, how Ferrari messed up this season. Max might become the most overlooked and unpraised world champion in history.

Do you think that the better mix of tyres across the weekend with the soft typically being a quali tyre and the hard a good race tyre is more to do with Pirelli getting their compound steps and choices right, or something to do with the new cars? In the past we often saw Pirelli claiming to be very aggressive with compounds but the racing repeatedly turning up boring one-stops. Even with free tyre choice for the Q3 runners we aren't having that so much now.

The thing I don't get with ferrari strategy is their mentality of "why live with the fuck up when we can make it worse". In both France and Hungary they decided to pit waaayyy too late in the race when their mistakes had already had effect, and pitting would only serve to lose them more time. There was no way in hell you can make up a 26 pitstop in the last 12 laps of the race, so just stick with the tyres you have on and hope that you can maintain possition
