Hmm, took off some downforce? Maybe some chance of overtakes tomorrow? Fastest top speed and largest DRS delta.
Maybe they turned the PU up.

Upgrades or just changing some components?
Updates impossible, they would have already tested them in free practice. They are changing some PU components

Outlap in Q2 was badly timed in my opinion. Only got a huge tow from PIA into the first corner and maybe a bit from the Haas drivers out of 1, but absolutely no tow afterwards…

the engine is/was new, though. Are they going to save it because points are out of reach anyway? ;)

Cant be updates since parc ferme. Unless they plan on taking penalties. Probably some safety concern due to chance of failure. Unexpected as unless Im mistaken, it was a new PU.

There are no replacements mentioned in the FIA document:

https://www.fia.com/sites/default/files ... %C3%A9.pdf

would a different engine be listed in there at all, though?

edit: apparently yes, going by the Austria report: https://www.fia.com/sites/default/files ... %C3%A9.pdf

You can change parts for same parts, changing to different parts would require starting from pit lane. So you could change a floor for new same floor, replace a PU with newer PU, as long as your withing the number of PUs allocated. Or you can change one of the 5 or 6 different sections of the PU. There is a bunch of other stuff like seals and stuff you can change if need be.

Whats the need to stop when the next guy behind you is 6 seconds away. There is no chance of undercut. This team is a mess all around.
