Which blips would these be? Not seeing any.
Look at the bottom trace, that's engine torque if I'm not mistaken. Note the sharp increases just before LaSource, LeCombe and the Bus Stop.

Bottom trace is an overlay of throttle position and brake pressure I believe.

Length of track suggests spa. Is it from this weekend or past years?
two cars in same team with different drag levels. We can see the two speed plots of the two teammates, with one lower on the straights

If you deduced that from just that picture very clever, all assumptions were correct.

What are you reading from he telemetry? - I don't much understand what I am looking at.

The highest trace is speed, the one with steps is gear used, second from the top is most likely steering angle, the lowest is throttle/brake superimposed. The red one with the arrow pointed at is probably time delta.

Oh. and the file name is McLarenTelemetry info :D
But yeah, if you get used to seeing telemetry it is obvious, and length on the track says this is Spa etc

the difference in speed starts at ~ 250 km/h
the other guy gains under braking

Pretty basic stuff, honestly not much to be gleaned from it (though still stupid of LH to post it publicly).

Overlay of two laps of very similar times. One lap / setup / configuration is better and gains time on long straights... the other in braking zones and corners (typical of higher DF).

it is all over the plave. LH twitted this telemetry from Spa quali. Macca were furious and asked him to remove it. According to one paper, it contains useful information of the set-up, line ride height, etc. Is true, for very smart on LH's side :D

ride height? lol.. it's jus a crappy photo.. other teams have nothing to gain from it than what the can get from on the track.

I am beginning to like this new LH, he is a real public character.

Red is loosing massive speed (slow acceleration).

Every time he brings high profile guests he gets bad luck. Maybe he should bring Miley Cyrus next time.
