Dicas e truques
Shanghai will be your first taste of the Sprint format in the 2024 season, bringing with it new opportunities to gain points, but even less room for errors.
- The Sprint format means you’ll only have a single practice session for the weekend, so it’s important to get it right on the first attempt.
- Consistency can be the key to success at Shanghai, so most strategies will call for the use of medium and hard tyres over the lesser durability of softs.
- Most strategies for the GP will call for two pit stops, but with a 25 second average pit time a lot of momentum can be lost, so be sure to time it well.

The track is under a safety car following Bottas’s retirement and Alpine needs to act. Ocon and Gasly are both on hards, but every team will be looking at their strategy charts to make the most of this opportunity. Now, Alpine will need to do whatever it takes to get ahead of veterans Ricciardo and Hülkenberg to make the return to Shanghai a success.
