Kimi had issues in Q3, none of the tyre sensors were working so he couldn't get the tyres in the right temperature. He is usually 2 tenths slower than Vettel, tyre were not in the right temperature and old floor and diffuser, not to mention Seb is also running a revised front suspension, and I guess that explains the huge gap.Sevach wrote: ↑29 Oct 2017, 10:49I doubt these new parts represent this big of a gap.
Vettel ditched the new front suspension for the time being.Silent Storm wrote: ↑29 Oct 2017, 12:40Kimi had issues in Q3, none of the tyre sensors were working so he couldn't get the tyres in the right temperature.

Why would point 2 have "5X" under it ?
Hopefully one of the experts here has an answer

It's new on both sidesF1NAC wrote: ↑23 Nov 2017, 16:39Also worth noting, that they had made this change to diffuser only on right side. left is still old style one: probably testing prototype for 2018 right there
