From optimum planning to adaptive strategy.
Evaluate race-defining scenarios. Adapt your plan.
The problem
Race strategy is not always about the fastest race time – the optimum plan.
It is about knowing when to deviate from it.
Strategists are accounting for factors outside their control including rival tactics and race-control events. Many decisions are made inside short windows where points can be won or lost by acting too early, too late, or not at all.
The solution: Adaptive race strategy
Track strategic options and adapt during the race.
Review live projections. Compare strategic options. Adapt your plan.

The walkthrough steps through a race-strategy board, showing how strategy options evolve lap by lap. Open this page on desktop to try it – or book a walkthrough and we'll take you through it live.
Book a walkthrough →Three calls. One workflow.
Hold the plan. Change the plan. Respond on demand.
Each lap, SwitchPad™ compares your options and identifies when the optimum plan should hold or change. When it needs to change, it becomes an adaptive plan.
Hold the plan
Confirm the optimum plan still holds under live tyre, traffic, rival, and race-control conditions – so you adjust ahead of time, not in a hurry.
Change the plan
When a scenario shifts enough to justify a different call, the optimum plan becomes an adaptive one – changed early, while the window is still open.
Respond on demand
When something outside your control happens – a safety car, a rival's stop, a change in conditions – act the instant it does, with the response already prepared.
Answer the critical questions
Should we stop?Should we cover?Can we extend?Is traffic changing the plan?How critical is this next overtake?Has race control opened an opportunity?Does the optimum plan still hold?
The scenario engine
Different series. Same scenario engine.
Adaptive strategy formulation is built around a common set of decision levers. Rather than creating separate models for every championship, SwitchPad™ organises race strategy into five modelling groups that can be configured for different series.
The result is a consistent decision-analysis framework that can support Formula 1, Formula E, Formula 2, IndyCar, WEC, GT racing, Supercars, and Super Formula.
