It was the right call, Ham had very old hards vs Rus with newer Mediums (I think). But somehow the FIA manages to mess it up again (I mean with the “Safety car in this lap” message and then: “ups naaa that jesting”)
Fair, if we had one last racing lap it would have been a great shakeup on the front, Russell could’ve taken the chance for P1 and probably some fight for podium. But yeah, race got FIAd
No way Russel would have been able to attack, with both Ferraris having Softs. All in all, it was a hard call for Ferrari and they thought they would have had 1 or 2 laps left. I don’t see it as a big mistake.
I’d still make the same call now, I think
