Lando's tires were 6 laps older than Max's.

Thank you. I'm waiting for information, and so far no one has posted long stint.

As good as the race runs look, the other teams always find more going into saturday. , the team usually arrives with a setup that is 95% of the way there, which cannot be said for other teams.

We have this discussion every week. McLaren has their normal run plan and it looks like that. With this improved pace it means they are sometimes top of FP1 or FP2. It does not mean they are doing glory runs or similar.

Yeah, I saw that table.

But the screenshot you posted was 236 kph?

326 kph

yes that’s what I meant, sometimes my brain lets me down

Just for the record guys I was being sarcastic about the low fuel- high engine modes.
It’s just usual for McLaren to top FP1 & FP2 when usually they don’t show their hand till quali so I was sarcastically saying that they must have changed their Friday run plans

Norris thinks Merc are just as quick as them, said Merc just didnt turn up their engines and didnt do as much in the final runs. Guess we'll see

The early 10 lap run in medium of Lando in a track without rubber is ominous of the speed of McLaren.Only Vestappen and Piastri can run close to it

Yep, Mercedes looked very strong early on and they barely improved on the softs. And they are close in the long runs.

If that's true about engines or Lando just playing mind games, remains to be seen throughout the rest of the weekend.

New engine cover. Where the Dell inscription is, there is an additional outlet for hot air. The suspension pushrod is attached approximately in the same area.

Looks like McLaren are strongest by a good margin in Friday.

The slowest cars are the fastest cars

Mclarens top speed is down, but for 90 percent of the straights they are as fast, so it is immaterial.
