Lance STROLLthere's just too much understeer, can we box and add a flap?
EngineerSo main losses, turn 5, turn 7, you are in sync with the people around you.
EngineerIf we go to Valtteri, you are a hundredth up in sector 1, a couple hundredths down in sector 2, so mainly that final sector, just over a tenth and a half.
