What I did is the following. Here is the picture of circuit as a reference.

Flat out on lap 1, I was 1st into turn 7.

Fuel management: Ease of the gas pedal cca 250m from T1. From T4 to T7 no gas at all. Some 250-300m from T10 no gas, T11 (a little bit further from T11, actually) to T12 as well. From T13 to the chicane also. The last fuel preservation was from pit entry access to T16.

Last 1.5 lap I had enough fuel for pedal to the metal approach, so the most important thing was to drive precisely like a surgeon. Because if you go off track or skid too much, they are going to get you from the back.
