Q1: On which lap will Alex make his first stop?

After a collision on Turn 1 of Lap 1, Alex made his first stop on Lap 3 under the Safety Car. Just 9% of players called it right that he would make an early stop.

Q2: On which lap will Franco make his first stop?

Franco enjoyed a strong opening stint on the hard tyres, running for 39 laps before boxing for the only time. Only 2% of all PWP players called this one correctly.

Q3: Which Williams Racing driver will pit first?

Alex has been the first of our drivers to pit more often than not, and that was the same again in Austin. 59% of players earned five points on this question, including The Strategist.

Q4: How many pit stops will our drivers make between them?

We totalled three stops during the USGP, and one in every five fans saw this coming with an even split of predictions made across the options.

Q5: How many Virtual Safety Car periods will there be?

A fraction over 50% of players chose "0" as their answer here, following The Strategist's advice that they didn't think we'd get a VSC slowdown.

Q6: How many full Safety Car periods will there be?

Bernd Mayländer was called in action for the first time since Canada, coming out in the early stages of the race.
The Strategist thought there'd be no SC involvement, as did 67% of you, but the 30% that went for "1" were the ones that scored points here.

Q7: Where will the highest placing Williams driver finish the race?

Despite a tough Qualifying, Franco made the one-stop strategy work to perfection to get himself into P10 for the chequered flag.
That'll be exactly what 65% of players wanted to see, as the P6-P10 option delivered five points to those who selected it.

Q8: On which lap will our fastest lap of the race be set?

Franco set our fastest lap on the 46th tour of COTA, giving five points to the 24% of players that selected Lap 41-Finish, one of whom was The Strategist.
The Strategist's Score: 3/8
A tricky weekend for our Grove guru who now has 355 points to their name. They shouldn’t feel too disheartened, as this weekend's most common result was 15, scored by 33% of players, but well done if you were one of the 0.4% that top-scored with 30 points.
With five races to go, our two leaders currently have 405 points, but anything can happen before the season finale.
