RS67 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

Morgan's car is 5 years old.

All of these cars are accepted / expected to be quick, but Goff's 5 year old CC will automatically be slow because of it's age?
I guess it is how much development and re-engineering can go into a chassis for it to remain competitive. The 2018 Motorbase Focus was on the pace, yet last year seemed to have fallen off a cliff in terms of it's performance compared to other cars.
