At the end of the season, the winner of most points gets to be a mod for a month, just to see what it's like from the other side.
(I do like the thought however)
I'll go a bit more conservatively and initially say pole lap around the same laptime as last year ~1:21. I think absolute pace the cars can do was more representative this year in testing than in previous years because of much better track conditions and from the fact teams had to push it a bit more to test out new FW/RW designs and so on.
If pirelli is to be believed they mitigated overheating risk by increasing operating ranges, so in theory there should be neither graining nor overheating/blistering.
The one factor which I think would provide a bit of impetus to the slower cars, is the improvements to PU in last 12 months. While the regulations would have slowed them down and teams might have claimed the down force levels back, the new large rear wing is going to be adding significant drag, which the improved PU across the manufacturers would be just enough to balance that offset. Hence I felt there could be slight improvement to last year's time. But I wouldn't be surprised if it is not.Juzh wrote: ↑09 Mar 2019, 10:54I'll go a bit more conservatively and initially say pole lap around the same laptime as last year ~1:21.

If the conditions are good FP1 and FP2 will already give us a clearer picture.
