Abu Dhabi GP. We have a decider 👀🇦🇪🏎️ 🟠 Norris arrives with a 12 point lead and a car with the strongest tyre thermal management in the field. 🔵 Verstappen arrives having cut a 104 point deficit through efficiency, consistency and pressure performance. 🟠 Piastri might be in third but History adds another layer. It’s been 15 years since we’ve had a three way decider BUT the last two three way title deciders, the driver starting third became World Champion. Kimi in 2007. Sebastian Vettel in 2010. Whilst P1 and P2 fight it out P3 slipped through the net. And Yas Marina is the perfect arena to settle it. Sector 1️⃣ Front support, direction change, stability on turn in. Sector 2️⃣ Pure efficiency and high speed braking through the double DRS zones. Sector 3️⃣ Combined traction and tyre thermals. This is where the race is won and lost. This track is rear limited and the finale is almost always a Medium to Hard one stop. Rear stability on the Medium decides the opening phase. Thermal discipline on the Hard decides the ending. Track position into S3 decides whether you can defend. And finales behave differently: • Drivers only race the rivals that matter. Others choose not to interfere. • Some gamble harder on strategy because it is the last race. Some go conservative. This reshapes overtakes, pit windows and pace deltas in ways you never see earlier in the season. The permutations mean any other car on the podium can flip the championship. A single position between Lando and Max, or between Lando and Oscar, changes who takes the title. And the question everyone will be asking: If the opportunity arises, will McLaren use Oscar to help Lando secure his first World Championship? Three contenders. One finale. A title decided by thermals, timing and who you meet on track at the wrong moment. 📬 Full Abu Dhabi Strategy Briefing drops later this week. 🚨If you haven’t joined The Race Strategy Society yet, you can still get sign up for the Abu Dhabi briefing for a limited time: mailchi.mp/kentixen/the-race… 🔔 Want more?
