Rebellion played that game in Shanghai too. The leader controls the start speed, and people assume the leader will just go. Toyota didn't fall for it that time but it does seem like it hampers the hybrid get away.

Interesting comments from Bart Hayden on Toyotas first stop being 10 seconds shorter. We've seen that before. Toyotas regular stops are shorter too with less fuel and not needing to start the engine, and being immune to the wheels spinning rule, so they get be super aggressive in stops.

Toyota are not out of this. The regulations on track are stacked in favour of Rebellion, but the pit stop regulations are stacked in favour of Toyota.
