2024 Mexican Grand Prix - Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, Oct 25 - 27

[Polite]

VER had slower pace than a Haas. We will see what happens in next races.

If pace continues to be this bad then it was the bib.

You've got it backwards. Supposed bib adjustment allowed for lower ride height during quali and would improve quali performance, something which is still in relatively good shape on the RB20. It should have no relative effect on race pace, which in any case is garbage since a long time before whole bib thing came up.

i think this is wrong: Rbr setups their cars for race pace then with the bib adjuster they can have good quali pace as well..

Now they cant.. so they setup the car for quali pace, and the race pace is gone..

your logic is wrong in my opinion...

It's not. A good quali setup would result in excessive plank wear for a whole race distance. So the bib setup must be for the race, otherwise you get disqualified. The benefit would be for quali if you adjust it.
