even Max's troubles in quali could not gift them a win?
They took advantage of the Ferrari strategy blunder though
Shows the dominance of that car
The thing is the car never had lower downforce to begin with. People were saying this, and it was not the case. Zero evidence from the team saying this.

I would like to think that is right, but I can not help but think they accidently lucked into a setup that worked.
Yes! and well done to the team RB for great work done leading into 2022 season! taking that honour of "dominant car" away from MercedesAMGF1 team!.
You know both Newey and Marko have been quoted as saying they had the best car last year.NicoS wrote: ↑31 Jul 2022, 18:07Yes! and well done to the team RB for great work done leading into 2022 season! taking that honour of "dominant car" away from MercedesAMGF1 team!.
And also well done to MercedesAMGF1 team for grounding themselves again and grafting their way back.
They will end second in WCC.
That’s actually exactly how it works. They have dedicated booklets recording every setup parameter, down to the most minute detail, for every aspect of the car.Big Tea wrote: ↑31 Jul 2022, 18:06Never mind, they all count, but I just hope someone made notes on how it was set up and passed them back to the factory for study.
Toto said everything is easier for max this year now that he is in the fastest car. Saying/ implying merc was the fastest last year.

Also FIA data analytics have also agreed.
That's why I said I hope someone copied it. They will not have the past data for this car or tyres.zibby43 wrote: ↑31 Jul 2022, 18:24That’s actually exactly how it works. They have dedicated booklets recording every setup parameter, down to the most minute detail, for every aspect of the car.
They aren’t in the garage blindfolded changing stuff around saying “let’s give this a shot.”
