    Feel like comparing a qualy lap from the last year of a regulation set and a testing lap of the first year of a regulation set and then complaining that it’s not as fast through the corners or at the end of the lap is pretty stupid.

    Otherwise I guess it’s good a showing you the differences on the new cars, but again once they’re racing I probably won’t notice.

        The video popped up in my YouTube feed and seemed informative. Is the channel known to be disreputable?

          Well for one. This is comparing a quali lap with a test lap, that’s kinda the majority of their vids. Pointless comparisons trying to make 2+2=5.

          Two. They spent the better part of last year spreading the “Norris bottler” toxic spam.

          No it’s not. Although these recent vids are a bit odd as they’re adjusting the telemetry and sound to try and explain what is happening.

          Their historical videos don’t do that, and I have found them interesting and informative.
