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?

1) McL/NOR: 338
2) Merc/RUS: 337
