We'll see if Alonso is generous again and shares the sim results before the race .

Doesn't really matter what they was trying, from the beginning he was just slow,not from half of the long test...

he's pressing "GO 1" twice. GO1 is aston's equivalent of merc's "strat 2" = quali mode. So they used quali mode already. Verstappen also said in an interview some people already turned up their engines, while they havent, same as bahrain.
Some nice slipstream as well in the beginning.

Yeah not really, Alonso was only 2 tenths slower than Sainz in the long run. When you drive a few laps close behind a car you lose time and destroy your tyres, also Alonsos laps at the end were really slow what indicates that. All this added up can make some tenths. I don’t know how it was with the others but imo there was definitely more pace possible.OnEcRiTiCaL wrote: ↑07 Mar 2024, 23:14Doesn't really matter what they was trying, from the beginning he was just slow,not from half of the long test...
Slow from the beggining compared to RBR YES, (half a second slower), slow from the beginning compared to any other long runner on Mediums, NO.OnEcRiTiCaL wrote: ↑07 Mar 2024, 23:14Doesn't really matter what they was trying, from the beginning he was just slow,not from half of the long test...

I wrote down Piastri Numbers as 1:34.7, 1:34.4, 1:35.1, 1:35.1, 1:35.2, 1:36.3, 1:35.1Alo_Fan wrote: ↑07 Mar 2024, 22:46Can you show me a worse drop off, percentage wise from any other driver on their race run?diffuser wrote: ↑07 Mar 2024, 22:45You mean the top 5 not the WHOLE field ...Alo_Fan wrote: ↑07 Mar 2024, 21:49Such a shame that it seems we have the worst deg in the field, the drop off from Alonso's first laps to his last in his stint were the largest out of anyone (bar Stroll). It seems like he could genuinely get a pole position at some point this year, but it clearly is the wrong direction to take in terms of maximising one lap performance as opposed to race pace.
I don't see any runs a by Norris on the Medium tire in FP2. His HARD tire run of 5 laps was good but Hard Deg will be lower. maybe Live timing is off ?

Context is everything folks. Hards to draw any clear conclusions from FP2 other than the car is slower than the Red Bull in race trim (shock!) and the quali pace is good.
