Make your Pit Wall Predictions
You can change your answers right up until the formation lap on Pit Wall Predictions, presented by Gulf
Q1 & Q2: On which lap will Alex and Logan make their first stop?
Lap 11-20. With such a high lap total, I think we'll see our first stops tick over into the second option range this weekend.
Q3: Which Williams Racing driver will pit first?
Logan. Alex has been our first driver to stop more often than not this season, but I think we'll see Sarge stop first this weekend.
Q4: When the first Williams Racing driver pits, what position will they pit from?
P11-P15. We have a good car in race trim and could filter up the order by the time our first stop is made, be that through on track passes or by stopping later than those around us.
Q5: When Alex makes his first stop, what will the gap between him and the car ahead be?
0.1-2.5s. I fancy us to be in the midfield mix by the time we make our first stop, so we'll be pretty close to those ahead.
Q6: When Logan makes his first stop, what will the gap between him and the car ahead be?
2.6-5s. I think Logan will be in some clear air when he comes in to pit, stopping maybe a lap or two after those who were ahead of him peel in for their stops.
Q7: How many Virtual Safety Car periods will there be?
None. I don't think we will a VSC period this weekend.
Q8: How many full Safety Car periods will there be?
One. The walls are close here at Zandvoort, so any incident will likely require a full Safety Car intervention.
