Ah - actually I put "apparently" because I'd only read it on another thread. The news stories suggest (quoting Kimi) that the reliability has been found at the expense of speed - probably they have limited the engine revs a little. Valencia is a short and twisty circuit which needs good mechanical grip and high total downforce - it doesn't need lots of power (lucky for Mclaren) or great aerodynamic efficiency (lucky for Jaguar).
