Solid progress today, John — your lap times dropped by 1.89 seconds as the race went on, which tells me you were finding your rhythm and getting more comfortable with the car rather than fading. Sector 1 was your strong point all race, so build your confidence there going into next time. Your opportunity is sector 2 — you've got 1.07 seconds per lap sitting on the table between your best lap and your ideal lap, and sector 2 is where that gap is coming from. Focus on smoothing out that section next race — matching your own best there consistently would make a real difference over a full main.
