Again we see a team with disappointing qualifying looking good in this measure.

Wow. It is close.

The lap time ranking chart is interesting. Look at the laps in the Top 10 - these are basically the qualifying laps. They must have been sandbagging at other times This really does show what naturally happens. It is less dramatic for United because they didn't run in hyperpole so did less of this pushing.
