Race strategy

A good strategy can change completely the outcome of a race. Having a good understanding of the main factors that impact lap time and ultimately race time is of vital importance to be able to identify an optimal plan. In our race strategy service, we rely on detailed test plans to gather all the relevant information to accurately calculate the race pace (lap-by-lap) and find the fastest overall strategy for your race.

There are a lot of factors contributing to the race strategy. It is imperative to understand how each of those variables influences lap time and how their impact changes throughout the race. Those can be tyre degradation, fuel consumption or even traffic. We account for these and other variables in our strategy models to have a good prediction of the lap time evolution over the race. From this, we can simulate alternative race plans to respond to different scenarios (starting position, safety-cars, undercuts, etc). We can also use this lap-by-lap prediction to monitor the race pace in real-time (check our live race engineering service) and feed that information to the driver.

We make sure our analyses are adapted to gather all the important aspects according to different race formats, from sprint to endurance racing, with or without safety-cars. In the end, you can only expect a professional engineering service that will help you achieve even higher places.
