If Red Bull committed to faster 2 stops over 1 stop, they would've won. Only after getting overtaken by Hamilton, Red Bull pitted Max for the 2nd stop.
It was a strategic blunder, there's no two-ways about it.
Okay, you cover Lewis pitstops. Max pits pits a lap later, Lewis pits on lap 28 so Max pits on lap 29....both put mediums. Lewis pits on lap 42 and PUTS ANOTHER SET OF MEDIUMS......what does Max put on??? Hards or softs??
It's not how start but how you finish.
