it’s not sandbagging if you’re looking at race pace. you’re more likely to spot some quali representative times in imsa free practice when the bronze guy gets fresh tyres and no fuel to have a crack with. wec/elms (to a greater degree than imsa) is going to be lots of full tank/new tyres combinations, or low fuel/scrubbed tyres after driver changes or at the start of sessions.

you certainly won’t be able to tell just by looking at a timesheet. if you build a run plan from the lap by lap breakdown you might be able to have a guess at fuel loads but you’d have to make a lot of other assumptions.
