🕵️‍♀️ Mercedes win by THIS every time!? | Ruth Buscombe

Video Description from YouTube:

At first glance, it looks like chance.

But dig into the data… That is not coincidence. That is a pattern.

So what are they really doing?

They are not just leading the race.
They are building a Safety Car gap.

Because in this era, P2 is dangerous on a restart.
DRS. Battery. One clean shot.

So if you are leading, you do not leave it to chance.

You build enough margin that even if the race resets…
it cannot be taken away.

Stay out.
Extend.
Take the free stop.
Control the restart.

Case closed.
