Corners Air/Track 1/1 Degree Air/Track 30/45 Degrees
EINGANG M 125 km/h 126 km/h
SACHSKURVE 81 km/h 79 km/h
SENKE 94 km/h 97 km/h
SUDKURVE 106 km/h 109 km/h
NORDKURVE 132 km/h 135 km/h
It is quite obvious the 1 degree Celsius track temperature (+ wind, humidity or other conditions on the day) has a more detrimental effect on the PSS than the summer climate conditions. |
Seriously?... Different drivers, very different overall track configuration, and likely different track/surface conditions. You can't attribute the differing cornering speeds to temp alone.
Note that I'm not saying the PSS are at their best at 34 degrees, but the engine is loving it.
The M2 CS is absolutely disadvantaged at 90 degrees. It is not putting down its best lap time at that temp. Not debatable.

Parabolika
CS: 248kmh speedtrap( 154mph)

10mph topspeed difference!
And Senke turn
CS: 99kmh(61.5mph) 1.2G
Comp: 94kmh(58.5mph) 1.15G
That's some pretty big difference, still M2 Comp manages to be just 2.1s slower.
Where are the favourable conditions for M2 Comp/PSS in 1 degrees Celsius asphalt and outside temperature?
Just put M2 Comp on Cup tyres and give it a nice tune and there you go.;-)

If Sport Auto is saying that the M2 C was tested in favorable conditions, why are you doubting them?? They were obviously able to activate the tires. You know better?
Your data makes the point, actually --
There was a 10 mph difference in trap speed into parabolika, with a nearly 60 degree temperature difference. How fast is the CS in that speed trap -60 degrees?
Comp with PSS is -3 mph through Senke turn. They managed to get that close, and match or be within 3 kph through a variety of other turns with the tires iced over? Ok.
