At the very least they should have split the strategy between both drivers to give them the best chance of winning. They should have learned from the previous race that the hard tire sucks.
Honestly, I don't enjoy TV shows and movies for that exact reason. Every time I'm watching something I can't get myself immersed and instead I think of how many takes it took them to film it and what techniques they used.
Formula 1 is really boring. One driver wins 90% of the races. You're lucky if there is more than one lead change per race. I guess the main reason I watch is that it's cool to see them race in different countries and the announcers do a good job of somehow making a boring race seem interesting...
