📊 AUSTRALIAN GP | TOP SPEED PER LAP
Not only were F1 top speeds much higher than last year, they were also always high, And reached earlier on the straight!
- 2025: Very high drag; DRS ON vs OFF had a big impact on top speed.
- 2026: Minimal drag due to active aero; overtake-mode adds deployment above 290km/h, but the top speed is *not* impacted as much (as battery drains quickly).
OCO went from slowest (304 km/h avg, no DRS) to quickest (334 km/h avg, peaking at 342 km/h)!
Teammate BEA was tied for 2nd best.
⚪️ Haas was quick on the straights in both quali and race!
🟣 COL hit 343km/h once!
