Well...not exactly 0.6-0.9 tenths...u might be surprised from what u are gonna read now..
The average gap in Q3 is
+ 1.424s....but that said..it is only from 2 races, Malaysia and china....in Australia Alonso didn't get to Q3 and in Bahrain he didn't do a time...
So the gaps are like this:
Australia Q3: N/A
Malaysia Q3: + 1.347 s
China Q3: + 1.501 s
Bahrain Q3: N/A
Average gap:
+ 1.424s
So i decided to look at the gaps in Q2:
Australia Q2: + 1.025 s
Malaysia Q2: + 0.664 s
China Q2: + 0.257 s
Bahrain Q2: + 0.194 s
Average gap:
+ 0.535 s
Interestingly enough the gap in Q2 was getting smaller and smaller every race....and if we look at the gap excluding Australia were Alonso had that accident and could have done a better time the gap is only
+ 0.372 s....
Now if we look at the average gap in each race it goes like this:
Australia: + 0.371 s
Malaysia: + 0.000 s
China: + 0.664 s
Bahrain: + 1.014 s
Average gap:
+0.512 s
Average gap without Malaysia where he won...so a more representative average gap is
+ 0.683 s....again interestingly enough...if we exclude Malaysia we can see the average race gap increase race by race in contrast with Q2 times which are decreasing race by race...
I am not making any conclusions from this...the conclusions are yours to make and share them with us...I just pointed out the facts...
