Are teams setting the car up for fast lap pace here rather than for pure race pace?

Hamilton does look very quick here. Albeit the car is still tricky in the rear. Ferrari went to low with the floor. They will have to change back a bit higher and then hope all is well for qualy. Yesterday they looked there though. If engine settings were as I expect.

At Monaco, single lap pace is the most important thing; drivers can drive seconds off the true race pace and still maintain position.
If you are more fortunate than others, build a larger table not a taller fence.

Steady boys!

Didn’t look a huge hit, but of course depends how much force goes onto the mounting points on the chassis.

Medland is having a laugh, it is not odd at all, if the rear goes you have no chance to save the car.

Does anyone have the best sector times of FP3 ?

Thanks so much guys and girls !

Interesting to see Sir LH had the best sector 1 time before making that horrible mistake. Regardless it’s just track improvements not that there is any hope for Mb amg fans 🥲
