    That was one hell of a turnaround by RB. How did perez do all the setup related work in the Sprint and still end up 9 tenths behind max¿?

      I mean max is really freaking impressive. But yeah, definitely great turnaround by the team on setup

        Yeah team have done wonders using the data from the sprint. Still it confuses me that the team mainly used data collected from perez’s car to determine the setup and yet max was 9 tenths faster. I would expect the setup to favour perez more

          They might have had two different ideas for the setup, tried Idea 1 in the sprint race and when it did not work changed to Idea 2 for both cars based on data from Checo’s car.
