Coming on here and reading all the meltdown posts and counters makes me laugh
mods ought to look into this thread a delete a whole load of it tbh.
My assessment of today: car is good out the gates. When track was green we were within 2 tenths of the leaders and easily in top 5. Saw this the whole weekend throughout practice. In fp3 we had a good time out the gates but never really improved it while all others improved. Kept getting traffic and took it easy for the rest of the session. Question we need to answer is why did we not improve in quali with track evolution while others did? Even stroll improved somewhat in q1 with track evolution. Traffic definitely did lot help but I fear that's not the only reason for q1 elimination
As we keep seeing there is definitely inherent pace in the car in certain situations. When the leaders were doing 11.8s on a green track alo was on 12.0. And in top 3. So why then when the track evolves to a 10.7 are we not able to take advantage of that?
I tuned in when alo had just been eliminated and I went back to mid q1 and alo was in top 5 easy and I couldn't believe that track ramped up that much. But it's the same for everyone and we didn't take advantage. Why is that remains to be seen aside from some traffic we don't really know. Alo lap was scruffy too tbh
