The Yas Marina Circuit hosts the final round of the 2024 F1 world championship – but what strategies will we likely see throughout the race?
The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is the final round of the 2024 F1 campaign, concluding the sport’s longest-ever season. Max Verstappen has clinched the drivers’ championship, but the constructors’ standings are still up for grabs, with McLaren in a strong position after locking out the front row. Charles Leclerc will start at the back for Ferrari. Teams are considering a one-stop strategy for the race due to lower degradation and cooler track temperatures compared to last year. Pirelli recommends starting on the medium compound and switching to hard between laps 20-26. An alternate two-stop strategy is possible but less likely due to time loss in the pit lane. Pirelli’s Mario Isola highlighted factors that could lead to a two-stop race, such as higher degradation, a neutralisation, or drivers pitting early to exploit tyre advantage.
