The Monaco Grand Prix this year was characterized by the intriguing strategy of executing a second stop for tires, especially without the intervention of a safety car. The midfield teams engaged in extreme holding tactics, which disappointed those anticipating an exciting race at Monaco. Racing Bulls initiated a strategy leveraging Liam Lawson to create a gap for Isack Hadjar, allowing both necessary pit stops without losing track position. Despite the risks involved, other teams, including Williams, adopted this gap-stretching approach successfully. Lawson’s deliberate slowdown from early on to build the gap went unnoticed on TV, as he aimed to create room for his team’s strategy to unfold effectively. Ultimately, the calculated moves and strategic pit stops played a crucial role in the outcome of the race, showcasing the intricate dynamics of Formula 1 racing.
