The long runs right now could be quite indicative of the true pace for sunday. Similar tires with the Ferraris.

Anyone keeping tabs on laptimes?

Really really strong pace. Looks about the same as what Leclerc was doing and the good news is that Oscar was running similar laps on the hards as well.

Norris was indeed 7 tenths up prior to his trip into the gravel.

Piastris long run looks very good. I get the impression Mclaren are hiding some serious pace.

Worth noting that Leclerc did a cool down lap in the middle of his long run too.

It's from Charles's time on the medium

Yes. Leclerc beat it by .06 of a second on his next quick lap and Lando was over 7 tenths up so I rounded it.

Edit: No you're right, it would have been 4 tenths faster in the end.

Leclerc then improved not by 0.06, but by almost 0.7.

I looked at the telemetry, I'm forgetting. Lando was 7 tenths faster than Leclercs fastest lap on softs at the time he went to the gravel. I did check before I posted, but then forgot that I checked.
