And yet Konica series AU Falcons managed to handily beat "main game" lap times in the years following... Teams spend too much time lobbying and not enough time developing the package they had.

Much like now.

Ford teams need to:
1. Sort out their pit stops
2. Sort out their race strategies
3. Have 2 top drivers in their team with consistency (name one that does now)

Once they have done the above, they can use a weekend's results to argue for parity.

But not one single Ford team has done all the above. DJR and Tickford need to stop throwing away results every weekend.

if DJR don't do something, they may risk ADP leaving. Will Davo probably past his best.

Tickford's best is Cam Waters, but he's not delivered really since 2020. The rest are unpredictable, either slow or damage magnets.
Nick Percat needs to contribute.
Dave Reynolds needs to find consistency, that unfortunately he has rarely ever had.

888 and Erebus pretty much have aced the above points, and maximised the package they have.
