Is it me or there is something a bit different on the position where the burn markings were?

Some sort of measurement device

i am not really sure. It looks like it's going to the suspension system in a T shape.
check out the other pics as well!

Considering the lack of running last week this might be very fortunate. 20 laps or so to test the solution for heating issue reported last week and send results back to the Woking for analysis.

Considering it's a filming Day is suspect the Device on the Back of the Car is a Camera. I know, crazy.

It was my first thought but still does not look like one....
Also take in account the position it is fitted ...
Ok, i know could be nothing but just coincidence ...

It looks like a microphone.

def not camera

You sure? Looks like a mounting system for a camera using wires to "float" a camera out to the side. Can even see a lens on the bottom of it. Would be a great shot looking forward over the sidepod.

Does anyone know how many lap did Stoffel in that stint when he did 1.19.8, or Alonso in 1.20.9 lap?

I don't have any info on Fernando's run, but if I'm not mistaken, Stoffel's time was set on lap one of a four lap run.

go through this much trouble to mount a camera, i highly doubt it, maybe to film the suspension part and potential flex or they are meassuring something, my quess suspension related

Eric Boullier:- It sounds crazy when I say this, but we spent the past three years doing some engineering and car maintenance, to the point we even parked the pit-stop training. We parked it because we couldn't do everything.

"Now we have a car, we have to make it work, but once the car works it's just now focused on being the best team, finding performance everywhere. That's the right mindset.

Vandoorne went out at 14:10.

14:12 Vandoorne puts those hypersofts to good use to go even faster - 1m19.854s.

16:39 Busy track now - Hamilton, Alonso, Perez, Gasly and Leclerc all out there with 1h20m to go.

16:43 Alonso is now 1.075s off the pace with a new personal best on supersofts - he's fourth.
