A hydrostatic traction drive system of a mobile machine has a first hydraulic traction motor associated with a first vehicle side and a second hydraulic traction motor associated with a second vehicle side. The hydraulic traction motors are operated in an open circuit and are jointly supplied with hydraulic fluid by a single hydraulic pump. The first hydraulic traction motor is controlled by a first control valve and the second hydraulic traction motor is controlled by a second control valve. The first hydraulic traction motor and the second hydraulic traction motor are each variable displacement motors with an electrically variable displacement volume, and the first control valve and the second control valve are electrically actuatable control valves.
