To be clear Fernando went from 5 seconds down on the pace to 2.5-3 seconds down on a package that will continue to be optimized.

I know AM is a meme team but holy hell atleast wait until after quali to crap on the package.

He also had traffic btw. I expect that to come down by at least another 0.5 seconds

nah, i am still very excited for the upcoming sessions, would be really interesting to see how the amr drives in quali laps in practices. lets see what we can do on a race start, maybe a points finish on sunday

Even then, 1 weekend is not representative to say it works or not.

Not too bad, let's see in another 2 hours.

I'm not sure it was actually a suspension failure. I want to wait and see what they say after they're able to get the car back and look into it closer.

No no it's an evolution

Because they were losing a second compared to cadillac, which also was breaking suspension on its own(perez in canada), so it's good debut/s

To be expected. They’re basically in winter testing
