these times are quite disastrous. around 4 secs off the pole time!!! whatever happened to the 'revelation' post singapore claimed by gillan?
they would, in IMHO, be far better off by declaring a dead hand and not waste any further scarce resources to this 'canine car'.
the post quali comments say almost zilch.

i have just done some quick calcs and based on the relative times set by maclaren and williams the variation is some 234 metres in distance!!!!
this just throws a little perspective on the variance between the two cars. food for thought.

the onboard shots were very telling- Maldonado slowed right down for the tight left hander towards the end of the lap, ended up having to put on opposite lock, then had to lift off massively again for that little sharp left hander before the final acceleration, right left to conclude the lap.
Vettel took the left hander much faster- it looked glued on and in fast forward by comparison, and despite approaching that left flick at a higher speed, he was almost flat.
Its rare to be able to see a visible difference, but today it was very telling indeed.
