A, the damage I've seen on F1TV. It's a small nick on the ramp-like piece that sits on the outside of the endplate, no structural damage to the endplate. Hard to see a big loss of downforce, the wing is basically completely intact.Hammerfist wrote: ↑07 Apr 2024, 11:32But this doesn’t explain why he was faster than George in the last 2 stints.
B, He wasn't faster overall. The extra pace you have when you overcut (which Lewis did both times) has to be weighed against the time you lost when your teammate undercut. Lewis lost a bunch of time in both pit-stop phases and didn't make all of the time back up during the stint (at least until George reached the back of Piastri/Alonso).
