With qualifying done and the cars officially entering Parc Fermé, which banned major setup changes, the team back at base immediately moved from car optimization to race execution and strategic scripting.
With detailed tire data gathered since the winter testing period, Fatih immediately got back in the simulator to start driving long, multi-lap stints to see how the setup treats these tires on long runs and try to come up with the perfect window to pit. When that was completed, they immediately moved to undercut and overcut calculations, trying to calculate the exact gap needed to successfully pull off an undercut or an overcut.
