As I quoted in my first post on this thread;
The article clearly states that the 2.1 sec difference is significant, even without considering the favourable conditions the M2 C lap was set in.
I'm not sure why so many seem to skip that piece of information, which comes directly from the people testing the cars and that are familiar with the track conditions... :
Well:
-It's not a short track, it's just the GP layout.
-There were no favourable conditions for M2C, 1 degrees Celsius asphalt temperature is very unfavourable for the PSS tyres. Tell me about it. Been there done that with M2C.....


Gerhardt also stated(last sentence) more or less: the difference between M2 Comp and CS should have been a bit more than what we have now.
