How was his 1st sector time before session stoped?KimiRai wrote: ↑27 May 2023, 13:23Mechanics were working with what seems Alonso's rear suspension or something in that area for a long while, is it setup change or some issue?
Edit: According to Spanish broadcast they did some late session setup changes: ride height and rear stiffness. Unluckily though Fernando could not complete a lap due to the Haas and then Hamilton, so it's a bit unknown for us if the changes worked, maybe not for him. I think he only completed the 1st sector both times.
Purple. But the Aston has always gone very well on the 1st sector to be fair.GoranF1 wrote: ↑27 May 2023, 15:25How was his 1st sector time before session stoped?KimiRai wrote: ↑27 May 2023, 13:23Mechanics were working with what seems Alonso's rear suspension or something in that area for a long while, is it setup change or some issue?

Don't underestimate him. Lance was very close in Jeddah (one of Alonso's weakest qualifying tracks if you know him) but made a mistake in sector 3. I don't like that Fernando couldn't complete a lap with the new setup due to the Haas and Lewis, he will only have Q1 and Q2 to find out.
It was very weird because he was half a tenth behind Fernando and then comes Q2 and he didn't set any times. We'll see the team will say if anything happened
Second this. An easy decision needs to be made. Lance needs to be dropped.
