Dicas e truques
With more DRS zones than any other circuit in the 2024 season, Albert Park can be fiercely competitive, so be prepared to battle it out if you want to secure points.
- A two-stop pit strategy is a viable approach to Albert Park, especially with a high chance of a safety car appearing. With many battlezones across the GP, timing your pits correctly can give you the resources you need to take advantage of a sudden opening.
- With a safety car likely making an appearance, you could bank on this after lap 40 to take the opportunity to swap to softs and storm up some positions.
- Thanks to the numerous opportunities to overtake, if you’re in a leading position you might feel like you can’t let up the pressure, but avoid pushing unnecessarily hard and wearing your car out.
