Just to pick up on the straight line speed issue once more, TouringCarTimes released an article on the topic comparing top speeds from qualifying and all three races.

Now to me that raises another question. The Hondas apparently can be near the top through the speed traps in the slipstream of other cars. Did they try slipstreaming during qualifying? And if they did, how can the much lower top speeds be explained?
And of course why is Plato so far down the order and still able to win two races if his car sucks and is only fast because of its engine?
