The decisive scene
L57-L67 safety-car, Leclerc retirement, and Hamilton final protection phase
Ferrari may have left a lower-cost pit opportunity under-defined between the first L57-L59 race control signals and the L60 Ferrari stops. That remains a process regret rather than a proven lost win because Hamilton kept P2 and the data lacks exact gaps and pit-entry timing.
Featured decision read: MIXED
Ferrari's call
Ferrari did not show Ferrari pit states on L57-L59, then both cars were pit-in L60 L61 under safety-car conditions. Leclerc’s last trace was L64 P3 and Hamilton later pitted on L66 while retaining P2.
Why the answer stays bounded
The exact marshal and VSC and SC signal timing, moment the driver had to choose pit lane, pit loss, and rival gaps are not supplied. Leclerc’s terminal event also changes the race model after L64.
