Yeah, i dont have any hope because was confirm they focus 100% on qualy pace. Probably tomorrow we will suffer like a hell on race pace.
Who confirmed this?

Since 2024 we've always had a better qualifying car than race car. However, I'm very happy with today, just a tenth off pole (or realistically p3 if McLaren turned up but that's amazing).

They had good pace in Q1 and Q2. Q3 was not random.
"The wind direction changed in Q3 and made the track slower, so we couldn't match the times of Q1 and Q2. We decided to run in the middle of the session in Q3 to avoid any other wind changes and we were close to pole position."

Fernando Alonso: "The front wing, which is maybe the first race that we properly use the front wing, is giving us that extra load in the corners, and in Hungary, obviously, it's very important."

"So, I think it's the third time, Imola package, and then the floor in Silverstone, and then the front wing now, all three upgrades deliver exactly what we were expecting. So, this is very encouraging for next year's project."
Where did you find that words?

What I've seen in his interview is not in that line (actually, he seems to think the contrary):

“No hicimos nada diferente a lo de Spa, solo que parece que nuestro coche se adapta mejor a un circuito que a otro, y esa es la cuestión, entender por qué se adapta mejor y en qué ventana trabaja mejor nuestro coche para usarla cada fin de semana”

He basically said that they did nothing to get this improvement, versus what they did last weekend. That's why I'm so surprised of that things you quoted. Did he say that??


He said the same thing you mentioned in English "that it's working, let's hope we can understand why".
