F1 fuel development questions for Shell's Mike Evans?

Post

Vance and I will be part of a group chatting tomorrow with Shell F1 Fuels Project Leader Mike Evans, who works with Scuderia Ferrari formulating their race fuels. Anyone have any questions they'd like us to pass on? We'll try to get you an answer!

Can you ask them if they feel that 2014's engine performance will come down to which fuel supplier has a better grasp of packing energy density into the fuel?

Can you show him some of WhiteBlue's post where he says fuel development wont be significant factor into next years engine performance, and record the resulting facial expressions?

Can you ask the gentlemen in question why two threads are necessary for this?

Again, thanks for all your excellent questions. I wish i could have asked every one of them. However, there were some technical difficulties getting the show on the road, so we were limited to less than half an hour with Mr. Evans. Rather than try to answer all of your questions here, I'll just give you the link to the video so any of you who are interested can check it out for yourselves.
