I wonder how the race would have gone if Ferrari did not fuck up their strategy and instead chose to pit at least one of their drivers during the first VSC.
If Ferrari doesn’t fuck the strategy, is it still considered a Formula 1 race??
Ferrari F1: I sleep
Ferrari WEC: real shit
This seemed like a glaringly obvious tactical error. You can never underestimate Ferrari to blow a good car on strategic failures.
If they’d pitted Hamilton (as he said they should have pitted one of them) then he would be either 1 or 2 on the podium.
Sacreligious. How dare you assume Ferrari doesn’t clown it up. This is Formula One! We have traditions here!
