Indeed it is! The pitstop configurator has been live for a while now. To access it, calculate a strategy and save it. Once it is saved, select a car and track at the top, after which you can configure the pitstop in each stint by clicking on the stints title.

A small yet impactfull change to the Strategy Calculator on the API. Instead of filling up stints with laps to the full, it now extends those stints that are short and in order.

Setups API v0.17.0
* change stint extension algorithm to first fill up short stints

And here, we, go!
Update is live, database is cleaned up!
May the new Strategies help you win countless races!

The ChangeLog of API version v0.16.0 and Website version v0.17.0 is too vast for a single @bsky.app post but you can see it at:
