Seems to be a very harsh penalty for something like this in FP2.

Not bad thing to do in Baku; It could be blessing in disguise for Gasly

Ouch. If it is Gasly's fault...

Neither him nor the team noticed that he was chosen to be weighed. They concentrated on pit stop practise.

Through F1TV, his mechanic doesn't mention anything and I can't see someone signalling to him from the onboard camera, at least not in an obvious manner.

At pit entry there are two signs displaying his name/number

This strikes me of 2017 where it looked close in practice then Merc blitzed it. I think it'll be close in qualifying but Hamilton on his race run did a couple of laps in the 1.46s that are massively quicker than anyone else, showing their potential. They probably wanted to do that to confirm how much they'd gain when they turn it up. Plus when track rubbers in they'll gain time comparatively I would imagine in the corners.

Thank you Matths, didn't know it. But still, is Gasly to be blamed?

Gasly has a moment every year here

Just a complete random question.
How much data do you think Fp3 live timing will consume approximately?

Data of Mb?
Depends on quality. 2 to 3 GB per hour is a fair estimate.
(if that was your question)

Live timing from the f1 app ~20 MB, 25 MB max, and probably less that that even.

Sorry, I thought it was video stream

lec vs ham
interesting how much more speed leclerc gains with drs compared to hamilton who barely gains any, but has much higher speed prior to the last drs zone of the lap. Makes sense as ferrari runs visibly higher wing levels.

ham vs ver
verstappen did his best lap on his first flying lap, compared to many other drivers, most of whom improved a lot as they did more laps. Verstappen was unable to do so as he did his quali run a bit later on and got stuck in incidents from other drivers, preventing him from doing more runs (If I recall correctly). Even so, he gains a few tenths in middle sector here on hamilton, but loses time on the final straight (~2.5 - 3 tenths).

Leclerc doing a an old school throttle under braking or is it the Ferrari ECU?

[Fer.Fan]

MB looks far faster on long runs then Ferrari,

On short runs Ferrari has small advantage.

In the Ham vs Ver comparison, it seems as though Hamilton preferred higher apex speed in T16 while Max went for a cleaner exit and got on the throttle earlier. That's a bit strange considering that it's a very long run to the start/finish line from T16.
