Power “didn’t have any defense” against Dixon due to tire strategy
Dixon overtook Power on lap 24 with the help of fresh alternate tires, securing a famous victory by expertly managing fuel savings. Power started from the front row on softer tires, swiftly passing pole-sitter Felix Rosenqvist. Despite leading by 6.5s, a caution caused by Christian Rasmussen erased Power’s advantage. Power, who finished sixth, believed the tire difference was key, with Dixon starting eighth and having fewer sets of fresh tires. Podium finishers Herta and Palou challenged Power’s claim that tire availability was a hindrance. Ultimately, Dixon acknowledged Power’s strategy and wished to see his final position after their synchronized tactics.
