"1:12.400 is going to be the cutoff time for Q1, but we need to be up by about three-tenths to be safe and commit to not returning to the track. Any lap time below 1:12.100, and we will send the driver out again to try and improve on their time.
For Q2, the cutoff is expected to be around 1:11.850, but depending on track evolution, the time can get lower, and we will update you if it does.
If possible, we want to use a single compound to go through each session, but with the track evolution improving by over 0.150 every four minutes, the difference between the first five minutes of a session and the final two minutes can be around a 0.25 to 0.35 leap in track speed. For Q1 and Q2, we will be on a two-fill strategy.
