F1 Race Analysis of the 2024 British Grand Prix RaceAnalysis

The King is back: Lewis Hamilton wins at Silverstone for the ninth time!

Lewis Hamilton won his ninth career in the British GP and achieved 104 wins in F1. With the Silver Stone's victory, he defeated the 94 5-day victory record, which had continued since the 2021 Sauz Arabia GP. At the end of the season, we gave World Champions to Max Felstappen, but we have described Lewis that we are not "hungry" because of the famous events that occurred in Abu Dhabi. I got it in return.

The reason for keeping the seventh world champion from the top of the podium is that the team's technical decline (it can be understood after a continuous world title in this sport). I guess there is a lack of motivation of drivers driving Mercedes.

With today's victory and tears, Lewis showed his second love for F1 this year. In fact, the choice of transferring from Mercedes to Ferrari last winter was a complicated driver like him. He talks about the athlete, which is the last stage of his career, who does not give up the world title's ambitions, even if he pays off the comfortable zone built with Toto Wolf and Niki Lauda. Hamilton is still hungry for victory, and we are grateful for the added value of the British to this sport, regardless of who they support.

Now, let's understand how the amazing victory on this British GP has been done:

First strategic error by McLaren in the transition to Intermediates

The intermittent rain was important for strategic choices, but the drivers to remain on the course in difficult conditions, such as the end of the first stint on medium tires, were also important. Immediately after the start, the ranking was replaced between Max Ferstappen and Land Norris, and the thir d-place Dutch driver was decided, suppressing the British driver, but the raindrops fell as soon as the lap 15.

On the dumped road surface, the excellent grip of McLaren was outstanding compared to Red Bull, which is also the result of the Norris and Pierstriri team selected more conservative setups. After that, Norris overtakes Ferstappen in a short time, and Felstappen did not resist the braking zone of the Stow Corner (in consciousness of events in Austria). Two laps (on the same course), Oscar Pierstrille easily overtakes McLaren.

It is the delicacy of Lewis Hamilton, which holds the steering in a tough condition. Hamilton immediately pulled out his teammates and stood at the top, creating a pace that Russell himself could not approach;

On the 28th lap, the walking team's pitwall, which responded to the movement of Red Bull and Ferrari's strategists, had only Norris and left the pierstrest on one more course. In retrospect, it was due to this additional lap (and the time I lost) that dropped the pierstrest from the championship. In addition, in the latter half of the race, McLaren lost the chance to "compete" in a 2-t o-one condition against Red Bull and Mercedes.

A few laps (lap 34), George Russell pi t-in and retired, which seemed to be caused by hydraulic problems. Aside from the concrete cause of the Paulman's race, Mercedes' Pitwall had to entrust Hamilton to win a chance. However, despite the tremendous pace today, it may have been involved in Norris and Pi Stror's "Cross Fire." However, as mentioned earlier, the latter was no longer the main character of the race, but still fifth behind Ferrari of Sainz.

After about 20 minutes, the rain above the silver stone rises, the road surface dries rapidly due to the strong wind, and the main races of the race are strategic to enter the pit to wear dry tires and which compounds to use. I decided to work on the puzzle again.

In McLaren's pit wall, Land Norris made both the pi t-stop timing and the compound, and Hamilton and Ferstappen (Hard) made the pit stop on the 39th lap, while he pit on the 40th lap. I stopped.

But to me, the worst mistake was not the timing of the pitstop, but the same soft compound that Hamilton was wearing one lap. At that time, the race had only 13 laps, but it was necessary to push hard to win, so the performance of the soft compound was reduced late.

British GP: Hamilton, Ferstappen, Norris race space analysis

Here, Hamilton itself, in addition to walking engineer mistakes (because a medium set was prepared, Medium should have been attached to Land and Oscar's MCL38 and made offset compared to Hamilton). It should also be noted for your abilities. In contrast to McLaren drivers failed, Hamilton succeeded in having a soft set in a good checker flag, preventing Ferstappen's 104th victory.

In terms of the secon d-place ferstappen, today's race will never be defeated by his RB20 or his recent predecessor as long as he is on the course. It leads to reflection that it should not be considered. In this British GP, there was a moment when the fifth place after the four Mercede s-equipped drivers who controlled the race seemed to be his maximum goal.

Driver ranking (as of the end of the 12/24 race)

One statistics is that Ferstappen cannot be underestimated, but it explains better than others: The last time he lost two races was in the middle of the 2022 season. Ironically, in Silverstone and Austri a-again, she was Ferrari of Sainz and Lucrer to win. This year, the two GPs were reversed, which fell to Russell first, and then in Hamilton to break the rule of the driver who has rewrote the books of this era in F1.

Carlos Sainz has earned additional points through the last lap fust strap (see the graph below). Although it was a little comfort for teammates Lucrail (14th place), Lucrerle ended up with zero driver's rankings in the past four races.

McLaren’s inexperience has shown since Austria

British GP: Top team driver's fastest lap time

Since a great victory in Monaco, Charles has been a technical aspect (a problem of polishing spoofing after yesterday's qualifying) and all sessions for 42 days. Today, it was a risky strategy by Ferrari's pitwall that took the 7th place in Monegask. As a result, the tires overheated on asphalt that were not completely wet, and the driver and the team had additional pitstops to attach another set of interlaider.

If you think about it now, it was a risk that was worth taking (considering that only 6 points at that time), but the weather forecast data was not accurate, but rain from the first pit stop. In the perfect situation, Charles' SF-24 was even delayed by the top runners.

The sixth place is Nico Hulkenberg, which reproduced the wonderful results achieved by Red Bull Link a week ago with silverstones.

It is also worth noting that Aston Martin (7th in Stroll, 8th in Alonso) and Alexander Albon's Williams (9th) have finished the race within the point.

However, outside the point, Kick Sauber (15th place in bottas and 18th in the circumference) and Alpine were conspicuous, and Ocon retired before starting from the pit lane. In addition, Perez also performed the same racing as Lucrail's race with a terrible performance in 17th place.

Lewis Hamilton received the ninth checker flag of his career, not only in the UK, but also in retrospect, Mercedes' resurrection, McLaren's technical top, but still in a victory battle with Ferstappen.
