So far, once again, fastest in most speed traps. (This time SC1 and SC3 ones)
Where are you getting the speed trap times from? Link?

There is no doubt they are looking better now than they have done in a long while. James Key will be breathing a large sigh of relief.

Lando doing longer stint in the afternoon. Just like Sainz did yesterday. Times do not look amazing.

Started at 53 lap, now at lap 68. I believe it is all in one stint (1:26s).

Pitting lap 71. Looks like 18 lap stint, running 1:26 or so. Immediately after pitting he goes out. I am guessing starting "stint two". Sainz ran similar programme yesterday. We may get "glory runs" later on to annoy the pundits.

He is not using all the power/DRS as he is about 20 kph slower in all the speed traps than this morning.

from autosport Long run snippets: We saw Leclerc's first run of the afternoon start in the 1m23s on C2s before drifting way out to the 1m27s before he made a mistake and came in. Bottas put in a very interesting run that was consistently in the 1m21s on the softer C3s - but crucially we don't know how their fuel loads compared. We've also heard from Daniel Ricciardo that he was happy in the morning with the Renault being able to lap around the low 1m23s and high 1m22s. Meanwhile, right now we have Norris circulating very consistently in the 1m26s, using C2 tyres on the McLaren. It seems unlikely all three of Ferrari, Mercedes and Renault would run lighter than McLaren, so is that bad news for the British team?

looks like everyone want mclaren to be at back. it sounds good for their business , bashing mclaren and get more views on their posts. :D :D :D. we do not even know what the mclaren planned run is.

Autosport:
16:05 Norris broke the longest streak of consecutive 1m26s laps with a 1m25s, and was clearly so uncomfortable with seeing a different number on his dash that he came in for a quick pass through the pits to calm down. We predict another 50 1m26s laps before the end of the day.

At least he's consistent...

Edit: He did a 1.25.225 & 1.25.175 just now...

If he just passed through the pits, he is full of fuel.
