Important note for the weeks ahead...

 

There could be a difference of 160+Kg's per car at any one time during testing. This means that a car that did a 1m12 today might do a 1m16 with a full tank of fuel...or it could do a 1m08 if it was full....so it's going to take some time to really figure out where the cars are at....it's only the team-mates you can compare and even they will run varying loads and experience different track conditions.

 

For instance Schui went out in the warmer afternoon, and after any initial gremlins had been fixed etc...

 

Testing is not going to be clear at all!
