This analysis could not be more wrong. For one, he only mention button's lap was on the hards, but missed out the fact red bull was as well, so both times should be -1s. Massa was on the soft. After years of reading his articles I've come to conclusion he shouldnt be taken too seriously.
This, he didn't took tires in his consideration as well as when the times were set, the day etc.Juzh wrote:This analysis could not be more wrong.

after next test he will crunch the numbers again, with the different result
Now that´s what we call grasping for straws.
I forgot about that one. He must have to have something to write/say so he starts grasping at straws. It doesn't really look like much has changed since last year. Ferrari will probably be more competitive, and I'm hoping Mercedes will be. I'd like to see Sauber in the mix; I think they will be on certain tracks.raymondu999 wrote:Yes I agree. Gary Anderson of late seems to forget a lot of factors in his calculations. For example he was commenting on how the Red Bull had the fastest race pace in Abu Dhabi last year - of course based on Vettel's fastest lap, done on 7 lap-old soft tyres compared to the others' medium tyres, which were some 26 laps older.
