Pre-Season BARCELONA TEST 18th-21st Feb 2011

[snowy]

Cracking work there snowy, I guess it's something to do on a Sunday afternoon

I have a lot of things I should be doing and I'm going to be in big trouble!

 

[KekeTheKing]

What's with the last lap of a stint being the same as the first of the next?

 

[Chad Stewarthill]

I see Webber has squeezed just under 1:25 with a 1:24.995 on fresh tyres.

 

[snowy]

Mark Webber went completely mental while I was making a cupper and posted a 1:24.995 whilst simulating a race distance!

It's a querk, the site is Greek after all.

Any idea how many laps he has left on that run snowy?

Mark Webber went completely mental while I was making a cupper and posted a 1:24.995 whilst simulating a race distance!

And trashes his new tires?

The next 7 laps were nowhere near that one.

 

[snowy]

Lewis has run into the 5 second a lap wear rate barrier Mark did earlier in the day. It has caused him to pit about 10 laps earlier than planned.

1:29s are still good though... compared to the Mercs

 

[sportsman]

Any idea how many laps he has left on that run snowy?

If he is doing a 55 lap race simultation he stopped on lap 47 for tyres.So eight laps on his new tyres.

Edit.He is on lap 60 of a 66 lap race distance.

 

[snowy]

I suspect a timing glitch...for the 1m24s

 

[snowy]

Isn't it 66 laps round Barc?

 

[Chad Stewarthill]

Thanks for that, sportsman.
And thanks snowy for another day of stirling work.

 

[sportsman]

Isn't it 66 laps round Barc?

Yes.Had just spotted my error and edited post.

 

[snowy]

Not much further to go...

 

[snowy]

Rosberg goes top of the times with a 1:23.752!

[snowy]

Petrov goes quickest with a 1:23.474!

 

[snowy]

Lewis comes back on track... no doubt, very peeved!

 

[KekeTheKing]

Petrov to the top, one could drive themselves insane trying to extrapolate any meaning from these laps times.
