Did they really start Chuck on USED softs??? Holy god. Is this even a f-ing racing team? Jesus. wtf.
Yes only Hamilton had a new set but they just use same strategy for both
Charles' options were used softs (3 laps on them) or used mediums (8 laps on them) while starting on the dirty side of the track. (Or start on the hard tire from second.)
What option was better than used softs?
Starting on USED softs is THE WORST possible option. THE WORST. Start Chuck on hards and split the damn strategies between the drivers and adapt based on what happens. Starts are no longer reliable for any team. My god. Why is this so hard for Ferrari to figure out? Even Ronald McDonald school of racing would have known this. What is happening.
There comes a point when a team deserves to lose. Ferrari did everything in their power today to lose. They are trying to equate the drivers, and they need to just go with dry data options and develop from there. Give the team a damn chance. Both on softs is a loser strategy. I cant believe they pay these people so much to make such obviously bad decisions. They absolutely deserve a horrible finish today.
