[AMG.Tzan]

That’s more like it 1.31.8 on Med C2s. Guess it’s Max’s last test session so might as well do some setup work

He was on C3 tires

Thanks guys. Can’t see it on the YT channel which medium compound it was.

Set on C3 tyre.

Verstappen Best sector times Q3 2022:
28.970|38.832|22.761

[De Jokke]

So far we're 1.8 seconds down (fastest times compared), so they're sandbagging around a second (for now), according to the team expectations (6 tenths down).

These pods upgrades will have to be utterly good to close that gap...

[Sevach]

Good handling car this Red Bull.

Verstappen on C3 tyres again:
1:31.650
S1 29.188| S2 39.466| S3 22.996

Including myself as it would be very ominous if it was the C2!!!

The Mercedes looks like it is running a very high ride height right now.

Yeah agreed. Very high compared to what they have run before. Not sure if it would be very high relative to RB for instance

[De Jokke]

Williams only 8tenths down

That was on a C5 tyre, 2 steps softer than any of the other times around him
