Norris was one of the fastest cars in every part of qualy, it wasn't just a magic lap, that's very good.

Didnt we bring technically the 33/100 of the update? I thought they said that they would bring updates over the next 3 races. Good performance today. The difference was significant

No, more like half the update. Almost everything in the middle of the car was changed including the whole sidepods and whole floor (entire tunnels).

I believe this is the update that was supposed to come at Silverstone. So it's my understanding there are two more upgrade packages coming, probably front wing and rear wing/beam wing.

Would be nice if someone could pull the data for Norris / Piastri separately.

Nice to see, that Lando was the fastest in the slowest corner.

I think we made a huge step forward - finally. Given the fact that we are within 3 tenths of the 1st is somewhat awesome considering where we were at the beginning of the session.
Yes, it is a short track with high altitude( that helps with the drag ) but still, we beat both Merc and AM.
I have high hopes for the upcoming races with the additional upgrades - fingers crossed

Not only that but 2 km/h slower then the Williams who are the bench mark in top speed.

Well done Mclaren, well done Lando. Good start and so happy we have straight line speed too. Tyre deg is what we need to see now

And challenging the penalty to Lando in the last race. Which still seems odd.
