2018 Scuderia Toro Rosso F1 Team - Honda

After seeing the (near identical) FP3 times of Gasly and Harley it makes me even more curious what Toro Rosso were up to in FP1&2

Seems like a 1 to 1 comparison with the better package put on both cars for fp3/q/race. Seems elementary, actually.

My point is delta between the two packages of 1.5s is unbelievable.

Not really. Modes and engine savings with fuel variance makes it so only STR knows the true delta.

My point exactly. Differences in the aero packages are obvious, minor, and uninteresting. I'm curious what they were doing with engine (modes) and ancillaries.

It's looking good, but it's very tight, hopefully this extra harvest mode can keep them in the same positions in qualy.

Just been listening to Marko on TV and he said Toro Rosso didn't show true pace in Melbourne because of setup errors and wrong tyre choice. He also said Honda is bringing a new spec engine to Canada.

Looks good, and the speed per sectors is better than mclaren and same almost than Renault. Someone have the max speed trap??

P.D. Albert Fabrega says that the upgraded TC and MGU-H from Honda has worked well and as expected, so i'm a bit less worried about the race

Looks that way...

Gasly is really in the zone... Q3 possible.. one Haas and one Red Bull out

[godlameroso]

A few tenths faster than Toro Rosso was capable of last year so far.

Gasly is really in the zone... Q3 possible.. one Haas and one Red Bull out

Hopefully he will put it there.

Im smiling here... With almost half MCL budget...

[godlameroso]

They gave away 100 million euros + 80 million split up fine and free engines which are now competitive because of Hubris. Water under the bridge at this point, go Honda!

[Alonso Fan]

well played, well played indeed

[Ground Effect]

Gasly will give Red Bull a little to think about. Maybe Sainz isn't an automatic choice if Ricciardo leaves.
