Race Pace doesn’t seem as bad as first impressions suggested:

And Qualifying Simulations also look good for Mclaren:

Yea they use that AWS stuff....SmallSoldier wrote: ↑18 Jun 2021, 22:25They consider fuel / engine mode / amount of laps on the tires for their calculations… Of course it could be way off, but I believe Lando for example had his fastest lap in his 5th lap of his soft tire run… The Mercedes cars were also on what is now the “Friday” engines compared to the Honda cars and Renault who were in fresh engines (and probably higher engine modes to ensure there aren’t any issues with the new units).CjC wrote:EH??????SmallSoldier wrote: ↑18 Jun 2021, 21:36From Formula1.com

But, sometimes (most often than not) their analysis is a little off, so I would take it with a grain of salt… Nevertheless, I do hope that is close to reality this time!

I believe is a mistake because of writing it in a hurry… Probably because they usually post the Qualy pace first and then the Race pace, when Barreto wrote the article, he probably looked at graphs and simply wrote the notes down based on the usual order… I don’t think that takes credibility away from the data, maybe about the writer (but Lawrence isn’t the one that prepares the data, simply tries to put context to it).CjC wrote:Yea they use that AWS stuff....SmallSoldier wrote: ↑18 Jun 2021, 22:25They consider fuel / engine mode / amount of laps on the tires for their calculations… Of course it could be way off, but I believe Lando for example had his fastest lap in his 5th lap of his soft tire run… The Mercedes cars were also on what is now the “Friday” engines compared to the Honda cars and Renault who were in fresh engines (and probably higher engine modes to ensure there aren’t any issues with the new units).CjC wrote:

They were right in Imola when they said Norris would challenge for P3/4 (I can’t quite remember the exact position) and he did until he got his laptime deleted.
Thing is if you read what is written in the article it doesn’t correspond to the graphs.... so they loose creditability....
for example:
‘In qualifying trim, McLaren have a 0.18s advantage over Alpine. When it comes to race simulations, Alpine close the gap to McLaren to 0.02s. A tight fight, then, for best of the rest.’
The quali and race pace figures have swapped in the text to what is shown in the graphs so to me it’s screaming if they can’t write the article correctly what else have they done wrong within the article and formulating the graphs....?
Wouldn't they use the race gearbox for FP3? If so, perhaps they installed it yesterday, ran some checks and discovered a problem.
It should be noted, the difference is very small. 0.1s to Alpine (same to Sainz). And there's practically no difference at all with Aston and Williams (0.01).
