2009 - 670bhp (3% restrictor reduction overcome with winter development)

New aero to overcome, and more, the rear wing change, tyre development etc.

= 1-1.5 seconds quicker in 2009


R10

2008 - 720bhp

2009 - 670bhp (10% restrictor cut, plus basic winter development as Audi concentrate on the R15)

Little aero development so a drop in downforce, for a car that already had conservative aero, no longer a tyre advantage as a customer car(?).

= 1-1.5 seconds slower in 2009.
I don't think I can agree with any of this............
