Tips & Tricks
In a race where there may be no safety car or weather upsets, your biggest choice at Melbourne is your pitting strategy.
- Traditionally, teams operate a one-stop strategy at Melbourne, but adjustments to the circuit make two stops more viable - especially if you see a safety car.
- If a safety car appears after lap 35 and the pack hasn’t broken up, strongly consider an unscheduled pit stop and swapping to faster, softer tyres.
- If the pack has spread out and you’re in a points-earning position, you may not see much opportunity to overtake, so focus on maintaining your place.
