My Word Sir! That’s a read and re-readable comment and something I admit to having done...Maritimer wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 8:30 amIf the Mercedes is experiencing tire shake off the line that would imply the diff is fully locked, which couldnt easily be done with a clutch diff that allows torque transfer in corners. If its electronic and can vary lock side to side, giving the impression of rear wheel steering as everyone thought the car had, could it be a magnetic locker? Magnets can react faster than gear sets simply because they have zero backlash and can be made to clamp or release infinitely within the range of motion the parts have. That would be a pretty instant transfer.
Max's first and second sector times were highly competitive. He was down less than a tenth to Leclerc by the hairpin then bailed out the lap at the chicane due to traffic. And it is possible Max's pace is being hidden. Honda looking strong on the straights and Horner is outwardly confident of the car in race trim

Tomorrow even warmer, there is likely to be a safety car so maybe a hard tire that can last all race would be good to gain track position.KelsO wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 8:33 pmThe race promises to be very interesting. Position three was possible, but it happened, as it happened. The main question - What tires to choose at the start. Max was very unhappy with the grip soft tyres. Maybe if it is hot, the tires will work better than today.
Wasn't he on the mediums when complaining on the radio about lack of grip and sliding?KelsO wrote: ↑Sat Jun 08, 2019 8:33 pmThe race promises to be very interesting.
