Racing strategy refers to the planned approach a team or driver uses during a race to maximize performance and achieve the best possible outcome. This includes decisions about when to pit for fuel and tires, how to manage speed and aggression, and how to respond to competitors' actions. Effective racing strategy can significantly influence the final results. Key elements of racing strategy involve analyzing track conditions, weather, and the performance of both the car and the driver. Teams often use data from previous races and real-time telemetry to adjust their strategies. Successful execution can lead to victories in events like Formula 1 or NASCAR.
