That's their normally way of working. To go intentionally slow in the last test would be a bit out of character.

Yup.
To be fair they had handling issues in testing last year too, which despite hamiltons win in the first race, took a few races to get on top of, but they did.
I think this year is a different proposition, it’s an unknown quantity. As above I suppose we will find out soon enough! I’ve no doubt they will get on top of it….just depends how many points advantage red bull or ferrari have by the point they do!
