I've analysed the telemetry of ALL 3,716 laps made during the F1 Bahrain test, looking for the highest top speeds - here are the results!
PU averages:
1) RBPT ✅
2) Ferrari -5.8 km/h 👌
3) Mercedes -7.5
4) Audi -13.5 ⚠️
5) Honda -15.5 ❌
- VER reached 344 km/h on Day 1, and no one has beaten it since!
- The 2 fastest cars have an RBPT engine.
- Ferrari was 7km/h faster than Cadillac; Mercedes 6km/h faster than Alpine.
- Honda struggled the most, yet improved day after day (303→318→326). They are running a detuned mode to safeguard the PU. Audi's lack of top speed seems genuine, though.
No team is running full-power yet. Still, RBPT's PU is looking strong, while Audi's and Honda's gap looks due to more than just a different PU setting.
What's your prediction?
