LEC had a plank wear issue - here’s how it ruined his race ⚠️ (Data-backed theory) 👇
1️⃣ Lap 9: Bozzi calls for 'FS1' PU mode➡️top speed drops to ~280km/h❌ (ERS cut abruptly)
🔴LEC was faster than 🟠PIA before, slower after; pace still decent
2️⃣ Still bottoming at Turn 11 (FS1 had no effect there). He’s told to back off there, further losing pace❌
3️⃣ Despite these measures, wear remained excessive. Final blow? Sky-high pressures on his final set➡️destroyed pace❌
(~2s/lap slower than PIA, undriveable, even slower than his 1st with ~70kg more fuel!)
He finished. But at what cost?
