The Strategist’s Dutch GP Decisions

From the seaside dunes of Zandvoort comes the next challenge for Pit Wall Predictions players. The Dutch GP is notorious for tight margins and the ever-present chance of a sudden Safety Car. With Carlos starting inside the top ten in P9 and Alex lining up P15, Sunday’s race promises plenty of intrigue for Atlassian Williams Racing.

Our secretive Grove guru, known only as The Strategist, has been studying the data and past race trends to lock in their calls for Round 15. Will you follow their lead or take a gamble on your own predictions?

Lap 11–20. Alex stopped on Lap 12 last year, and The Strategist expects a similar early stop from the midfield.

Lap 11–20. Carlos went long in 2024, but The Strategist anticipates him pitting earlier this time around.

Alex. He led the way into the pit lane last season, and The Strategist is backing him to do so again, potentially looking to make an undercut.

One. While 2024 passed without interruption, Zandvoort has a history of Safety Car deployments, and The Strategist is counting on at least one appearance.
