•The mistral wind !
In other words : This season It's the strong mistral wind at the Paul Ricard circuit .
I already mailed this morning with my nephew in France. He said over this weekend the wind is unpredictable and is constantly changing...
That's why the cars run slower than last year .
Today the wind blows even harder ,mate that's bad news for 7Hammy !

"EDIT & UPDATE"

'75% chance of rain (thunderstorm is possible) at 01:00 PM !
Just flashed up on GPblog a thunderstorm may or may not happen and the wind is stronger than yesterday.

Just look at the video and listen to the explanation.
Or listen to any other video where DAS is explained where they talk about the advantages and disadvantages about 0deg toe.
They all explain that 0deg toe gives more straigthline speed because it reduces scrubbing of the tyres resulting in less friction thus less rolling resistance.
Even people that have lots of actual race experience explain it this way. I'll take their word over yours anytime.

Or you could just post a video where they claim the opposite.

Garage List
Am looking forward to today's race, should be very entertaining. Both Mercs did well to split the RB's, unfortunately for Max with Perez now starting back in 4th, doesn't appear that the 'warp speed' of the RB 'spaceship' was enough, maybe if he'd also had a new engine it may had been different.

Excellent pole equally lap from Max, having the extra power from a new engine for this race seems to have been a good call by RB, especially with Lewis 'wasting' the advantage of his new engine at the last race.

Happy that Mick 'made' Q2, taking 15th in that Haas. Hopefully he didn't damage the gearbox with his little 'spin'

I think it's good to see RB challenging the Mercs & a good result for Carlos taking 5th & out qualifying LeCock by two positions.

I think it's going to be a very close race today and I think the drivers know this too.
I hope they don't all crash in the first corner and see some real battles on the track.

"Regarding DAS"

Check out 7Hammy's pole lap , during the '2018 Hungarian GP !

Don't think DAS was FIA approved in '2018 !

Be my guest ...
Personally I look at “faster” as lap times, not straight line speed, but to each their own.
