This would allow for the possibility of a one-stop race—creating a mix of one-stop and two-or-three-stop strategies. Under the current system, if you want to do a one-stop race, you're effectively out of contention before you start; you begin too far back and have to burn half your "boost" just to get to the front, leaving you with no chance for the top spots. This change would make races much more entertaining and strategic battles more suspenseful. It would also boost competitiveness for weaker teams; qualifying grids are often mixed, and during the race—from the leaders down to the middle of the pack—no one knows if their rivals will opt for one stop or two. Consequently, there would be a much greater chance of victory or high finishes for less competitive cars. Right now, strategies are predictable: the frontrunners are guaranteed to make two stops, while those further back might try a one-stop strategy. The racing becomes static because the strongest cars always finish ahead; since everyone is likely on the same two-stop strategy, the superior car's performance advantage inevitably secures the win.
