Guess the Pole 2019: France [+Results]

[XcraigX]

This is why I can't speak the language...

A big long straight. Followed by some twisty bits and another straight on the way back. This is another chance for Ferrari to step above Mercedes. Can Vettel or LeClerc keep it on the track, avoid penalties, and outclass the Silver Arrows for once? Get your guessing smarts warmed up and try to surmise the best lap time for this track given the 2019 machines. Go!

That's a tight field! Just .622 of a second between everyone.

Congrats to @erwin greven, and Q3 hasn’t even finished yet

[John]

Serves me right for abandoning my 1.28.7 guess.

[Mawerick]

They were a bit faster than anyone expected, I see.

[kals]

2019 cars will have less downforce with simpler wings they said, they’ll be slower they said

1.7 seconds quicker in France. Jeez

Thanks for playing! And the new thread for the GP of Austria is already up. No break between races, so get your guess in soon!

[Picci]

Ironically I think that was also the first time this year that @erwin greven actually scored any points!! Congrats!

[Ian-S]

I thought we were on a late starting race - dam lol

[MonteCristo]

Sneaky for changing your time, @erwin greven, but well played!
