As Pirelli predicted, most drivers completed the race in Jeddah with a single pit table…
Mario Isolahead of the racing department: “The race turned out to be relatively easy, both in terms of result, which was almost a complete copy of the results of the race in Bahrain, and in terms of tire performance.
We knew the optimal strategy would be one pit stop, and that’s what happened, although the early departure of the safety car forced the drivers to pit early.
The C2 tires proved very stable, as evidenced by Charles Leclerc’s best racing lap on the set, which spanned 43 laps.
The C3 tires were also up to the task, as the four drivers who chose to stay on track after the safety car were able to push them to their wear limits while maintaining high speed.
Compared to training, the granulation of this compound decreased as the asphalt became covered with waste rubber. The series of laps from Hamilton and Norris confirm the competitiveness of this line-up.”
