I should add I was watching with the sound off so there's probably more to it than that, just looked quite bouncy to me.

Isn't the RB now going quicker than last years quickest testing times now? Since your 1.5s post, there's been plenty shaved off the lap times?

When I posted Sainz was at 1:33.2 and now the fastest was 1:32,98 or something. I might be mistaken but I think the fastest lap last year was 1:31,7

Not really a fair comparison/expection though? Why not compare fastest time of comparable test session?

Well any times in pre season testing means nothing really. But last year was totally new designed cars and engines, so I would expect the first day or two for them to have been much more conservative than now.

Anyway I don't know why this is even an argument, I just posted that the times we are seeing now is still 1.5s of last year's best time as info, nothing wrong with that statement and nothing to challenge, just general info.

Wouldn't call it an argument, so much as a conversation to find clarity and understanding on what each were meaning, referring to, with the different stances of comparison at the beginning.

Alot of what we see in times has to do with the processes teams follow over the days, systems and checks etc, priorities each day. Won't see them pushing for a comparable 'fastest' time until day 3 regardless of whether cars are faster or not. Aero checks with the rakes, the long runs for hitting reliability targets etc etc were going to be dominating priorities for 1st day.

Going to be quite interesting to see how the laptimes development, even during the afternoon session for sure.
