I think Gasly got a new ICE among the new elements, but Hartley didn't. I'm taking a wild guess here, maybe Hartley is running heavily defined as a precaution, till qualifying proper.
The Numbers are impressive. Sector Times and top speeds are really good. And if we take for granted that TR hasn't become suddenly one of the best chassis, that gives Honda PU even more credit.Ground Effect wrote: ↑06 Apr 2018, 18:52I think Gasly got a new ICE among the new elements, but Hartley didn't.

Maybe PU also a bit better than first one. But it is whole package. They were saying we are good at tracks with low speed turnings. So I think this is main reason and other important reason is this is a real race track unlike melburne's.Bisonas wrote: ↑06 Apr 2018, 19:00The Numbers are impressive.

As i said again, i don't know what they are doing. We will know at Qualifying.
If Hartley was up there also, it would have been a really wow display.
If I'm not mistaken, those are actually pretty good. Hopefully we won't be too disappointed tomorrow.
Faster than Vandoorne.
