Monza hosts the 16th round of the 2024 F1 world championship – but what strategies will we likely see throughout the race?
The Monza Circuit is hosting the 16th round of the 2024 F1 world championship, with McLaren securing the front row for the race start. Lando Norris will lead off the line, followed by Oscar Piastri, as McLaren aims to chase Red Bull in the constructors’ fight. Teams will be strategizing for the race, with Pirelli recommending a one-stop strategy to reach the end. With the long pit straight causing time loss during stops, the one-stop approach seems advantageous. The recommended strategy involves starting on Medium tires, with the pit window opening around lap 19 to lap 25 and then switching to a set of Hard tires for the finish. The option of a two-stop strategy using Medium-Hard-Hard or the reverse strategy is also available, but a one-stop is considered almost obligatory at Monza.
