Keith you’ll also have to edit tha entire paragraph and in light of the new time I would just love to know what Renault did to the car. Did they re-install that mass damper just to see what happens?

Sorry Keith but Piquet’s time is wrong.

He did 1:20.076, which actually is the record of the circuit. here you have the notice at the official website of the circuit

I didn’t want to say that… but you could read it that way…

He needs a big result in the next couple of races – I don’t see him getting one.

In fact if anything Piquet has gone backwards.

Nice breakdown Keith. The Renault stuff is particularly interesting. Much was made of Piquet’s fastest time on Saturday, but reading between the lines I’m not entirely convinced that it represents any real progress. No doubt we shall see in France…
