Tyre strategy analysis
The leaders mostly made one stop. Verstappen changed to hards relatively early and then resisted Norris’s pressure. Russell controlled the race from the lead and was not forced into an extra change late on. Hamilton followed a different two-stop rhythm but received a post-race penalty for repeated track-limit breaches and fell to eighth.
