Performance gains in the ground-effect era have been wild:
~3% less drag, ~12% more high-speed acceleration 😳
📍 Ferrari in Hungary quali:
2022 ➡️2025
✅-2.195s laptime‼️
✅+3km/h top speed
✅+4km/h minimum speed
✅+13km/h in Turn 11‼️
Each year, laptime improved and top speed was higher or equal, but downforce improved the most.
Ferrari cut drag while massively boosting downforce:
- Increasing the top speed from 312 to 315km/h means a ~3% reduction in drag {(312/315)^3 - 1}.
- Increasing the minimum speed in T11 from 228 to 241km/h is a ~12% increase in lateral acceleration {(241/228)^2}, or ~0.5g more!

As expected, 🟥Softs had the highest potential, then 🟨Mediums, then ⬜️Hards.

Albon was quickest, right in front of his teammate. The Softs aided Williams' traction (SAI was quickest to 100km/h).
The two Haas cars were quickest among those who started on Mediums.
HAM was quickest on Hards.
RUS had to back off not to rear-end NOR. 😬

HUNGARIAN GP - RACE PACE 📊
🟧 NOR's bad start was a blessing in disguise: was forced to rely on an alternate strategy (one-stopper) to make places, and it worked!
Not only was 🟦 VER 1s/lap slower than 🟧 PIA on the same strategy, he was barely quicker than ALO/BOR/STR/LAW despite using one more tire set!
🟥 LEC’s pace was dominant until L9, then his issues began. Still decent until his last pit (L40), then it collapsed: only 4 drivers were slower by the end, including both Alpines.
Can VER fight back?
Will we ever know the truth about LEC's issue?

LEC had a plank wear issue - here’s how it ruined his race ⚠️ (Data-backed theory) 👇
1️⃣ Lap 9: Bozzi calls for 'FS1' PU mode➡️top speed drops to ~280km/h❌ (ERS cut abruptly).
🔴 LEC was faster than 🟠 PIA before, slower after; pace still decent.
2️⃣ Still bottoming at Turn 11 (FS1 had no effect there). He’s told to back off there, further losing pace. ❌
3️⃣ Despite these measures, wear remained excessive. Final blow? Sky-high pressures on his final set➡️destroyed pace ❌
(~2s/lap slower than PIA, undriveable, even slower than his 1st with ~70kg more fuel)!
He finished. But at what cost?

🔴 LEC got pole by having the most well-rounded performance!
🟠 McL (PIA): best cornering (both low and high speed), but hurt by high drag.
⚫️ Mercedes (RUS): best top speed, but also worst low-speed cornering.
🟢 Aston (ALO): Similar to Ferrari, but slower in the fast corners.

🟠 NOR was out of reach in S2 (endless series of medium-speed corners) where McL's high downforce shined.

🔵 VER struggled massively in sectors 1 and 3: he was 2nd slowest in both!

AERO CHART (Best lap on softs)
🟢 Sauber/🔵 RBR/🟢 Aston/🔴 Ferrari/🟠 McL all reached 318km/h in their best lap - downforce and the mechanical setup determined the order, not drag.
🟢 Mercedes had the lowest drag by far (+4km/h vs next best).
🟣 Alpine's only reached 314km/h, yet their downforce didn't impress.
Different engine modes could mask drag a bit: for example, NOR seems to have been running slightly more power than PIA (+2km/h, no sign of less downforce).

HUNGARIAN GP - WING THURSDAY:
Teams running Monaco-spec maximum downforce wings - and 🟠McLaren’s looks like a barn door! (Furthermore, the car already produces significant drag and downforce on its own.)
Possibly optimal for pace, but they’ll be sitting ducks on the straights.
Let’s see how this plays out!

The Eau Rouge is probably the most extreme corner in F1: 5G of lateral acceleration PLUS 1G of vertical compression (due to the progressive increase in road slope).
The result? Around 10,000N (one tonne) on EACH outer tyre! 🛞🔥
The tyre deformation is even higher than that shown here!

VER's high-load setup made him the slowest in the speed traps (but the McL drivers, who didn't use DRS either, were barely faster).
