How long was the stint on those two times?

OK time for this American to get some sleep, hopefully I'll wake up to some 1:33s.

That's interesting because - whilst it's possible they were using different fuel loads - it gives us an idea that there might be 5 to 6 tenths between the softs and supersofts.
Some sites claiming the 34.2 was also completed on the soft compound.

I couldn't see either on Autosport or on Sky Sports Live or on AMuS ticker about SuperSoft mentioned for Lewis' run. For his previous run of 1.34.813, it was mentioned as Soft.

That could be any random picture. Confirmation from a journalist at the track would be nice.

Hamilton sets those times on the softs, throw the supersoft into the mix and he could shave a second off the lap, thats not even in race spec, the quali times for this season are looking representative last seasons, the race lap times might be slower due to fuel restrictions though.

which other proof you need?

No that's good for me. Because a picture is just a snapshot of the moment, it could be any random picture thrown in there. That's why I'd rather have confirmation from somebody at the track. Anyway, +1 from me!

No one reported super softs. Someone made that up or mistranslated something. They ran softs and mediums this am in what I assume was a FP/q1/2/3 sim.

If mercedes really put a 1:34.8 on mediums, then that's pretty darn impressive. Say one second in the pocket still if they put on the SS's and they are only 1.5s away from last year's pole time.
