People are having a knee jerk reaction and assuming Ferrari was doing Ferrari strategy things. I mean, with their track record I understand why people would assume that lol.

Anyway, not sure what was going on, who was at fault etc, but it was blindingly obvious that he should have pitted, especially since he gave up on the mediums so early. It was a no brainer. I have no idea what anyone was thinking, if Lewis made the decision thats on him, but its also a tiny bit on Ferrari for not telling him to not be daft.

    "Under the VSC, the team called me in, but I missed the entry. After that, I decided to stay out and try to hold track position to the end,

    Post race statement from Lewis. He also chose to start on those medium tires. So yeah I don't think there was anything Ferrari could have done better.

    One can argue that Ferrari should have asked Leclerc to let Lewis pass because at that point they were on different strat but like Leclerc was putting in faster laptime on those medium tires than Lewis best laptime on those softs so.... 🀷
