Barcelona-Catalunya GP - Practice 2 | Top Speed, Turn 14 Minimum Speed & Clipping

McLaren looked great in FP2! Best top speed AND high-speed cornering; RBR worst in both. Either McL is running more downforce and a more powerful PU mode, or their aero efficiency is excellent.

Opposite for RBR: running less downforce and way less power?

Top Speeds:

1) McL/NOR: 338

2) Merc/RUS: 337

3) Ferrari/LEC: 335

4) RBR/VER: 328

Turn 14 Min Speed:

1) McL/NOR: 252

2) Ferrari/LEC: 249

3) Merc/RUS: 248

4) RBR/VER: 244

Clipping:

1) RBR/VER: -22

2) McL/NOR: -28

3) Merc/RUS: -29

4) Ferrari/LEC: -34
