| Re: Turbo era car versus 2007 V8 Winglets car at Spa I was able to see it... Nive video, but bad comparison for several reasons. Raikonnen is the one of the best drivers and is driving the fastest car of the pack. Nakjima was good but not that good (see the McLaren closing in behind him). Raikonnen has TC, nakijama hasn't. I wonder what lap times would be driven now if the FIA hadn't come up with so much rules to slow the cars down. Oh and BTW spa-francochamps was not adjusted to slow the cars down, the bus stop chicane even got a lot smoother so they made it even a little faster. |
