Las Vegas GP: FP2 LONG RUNS
10 drivers within 1s of the fastest! (π PIA) β‘οΈ Different fuel loads/engine modes obfuscate the pecking order
Despite being slow in FP2's quali simulation, π΅RedBull was quick in the long runs (normally it's the opposite)
π£Alpine's pace looks solid!

In the race that crowned Verstappen 4x WDC, his former rival impressed the most: Lewis Hamilton was just 0.02s/lap slower than RUS (who managed a bit) despite being stuck in traffic!
Car Pace (faster driver only)

π₯Ferrari +0.15s/lap

Tyre deg was much higher than expected: on Mediums Ferrari's deg in particular was incredibly high (and Mercedes and partly RBR were miles ahead of them).
On Hards Ferrari got the better hand on RBR and matched Mercedes.
GAS was quick, while OCO struggled.
TSU almost matched PER!

Unbelievable: the slipstream made Gasly's Alpine self-destruct!π₯(Not his fault)
β«οΈLap 13 (Reference)
π£Lap 14 (Failure)
He got a strong tow from TSU, reaching 361km/h under DRS: the engine reached 12937rpm in 8th gear, then exploded! (Speed dropping, no power afterwards)
The gear ratios are fixed for all tracks: Alpine's last gear is short, and the engine couldn't resist the resulting high rpm (and the hot air from TSU's car didn't help either)

Albon reached 369km/h during the #LasVegasGP: higher than any other driver this season! (Equalling Vettel's 2019 Monza top speed in the 'godly-engined' SF90).
He reached 13194rpm in 8th gear: 257rpm more than Gasly before his engine gave out.
He later retired (3rd race in a row).

π‘Wings For Qatar GP (Tyre-killer track!)
Teams opted for medium-high load wings:
-Downforce is crucial for cornering performance and to manage the tyres
-Drag is not as impactful, but if excessive it impairs ability to attack/defend
Most loaded: βͺοΈHaas
Least loaded: π΄Ferrari?
Sauber seems to be on a similar level to Haas, too.

π₯Ferrari's pace looks real!
LEC had more downforce than NOR: he gained over 0.2s from Turn 12 to 15 (the fastest ones) alone!
T14: 254km/h NOR, 269 LEC (+15).
π‘Drag, however, was no higher: π΄317km/h vs π 318 top speed.
Image 2):
The impact of the rear wing configuration is crazy! (Red Bull had the highest top speed, +10km/h vs Sauber, yet it was 8km/h slower than it in T6).
Time to decide: what's YOUR prediction? π€

FP1 LONG RUNS
Ferrari did the longest long runs and were quickest until they backed off (Lap 15).
FP1 conditions (Hotter, dirtier track) might have advantaged them: expect McL to be on the same pace!
RedBull was pushing way less (much slower and always improving lap times.
In the past few races the Hards have performed better than the Mediums after just a few laps, which might make Ferrariβs pace look slightly better than it really is.

2) BEST SECTORS:

QATAR GP - SPRINT | Top Speed per Lap:
PIA used DRS in 12 out of 19 laps, yet he was slowest than anyone else who did as well, for two reasons:
- McL had the lowest top speed in Sprint Quali too (high drag).
- Most drivers had a double (or more) slipstream!
In just 19 laps everyone except for NOR used DRS!
