It seems the improvement from C4 to C5 is only 0.3 which is promising to be with the Redbull!

Calm down everybody, Gasly did 5 laps setting that time, Norris only did one, what's the fuel difference per lap?

Mclaren does not compete with RBR.

Things seem to be quite tight indeed. Norris' best lap is just 0.15 s away from the ideal lap, yet he did not make any best sector time (or top speed)

We are, at least, half second behind RBR

1m17.084 for Norris now but with the C5 tyre
Sky saying C4... these tyre markings are ridiculous!
There's a tweet from @Circuitcat_eng highlighting Lando's time, the pic used he's clearly on the C4 tyre. But I can't confirm it's from that run.

looking a lot better. i think he was on the C4. Good that they are focusing on extracting performance. That means they are happy with the current reliability

What does auto sport and these so called pundits have to say now. Since Albon has gone fastest. Complete BIAS against McLaren.

I would say that Norris can go way faster than that as he did that time with the C4. Also if that was a sarcastic post against Mclaren from a Honda fan just gonna say from now that all these small teams are gonna finish behind Mclaren now that they are coming back to normal.
