Not to "fix" the ARB, to compensate for it. They cahnged to lower downforce at the rear due to the add'lm grip due to the roll bar causing understeer. Even announced on FOX.

#1 pits for slicks.

Did anyone keep an eye on how many laps they did?

Yeah we know. But as Wurz said, it doesn't solve anything because all it does is rebalance the car bit at a significantly lower grip level. So as I said, not sure what that's going to solve. Might make the car driveable but it's going to be losing time all over the place.

All this does is suggest that the ARB is not easily serviceable on the car, otherwise they'd take the opportunity to do it especially given its laps down now.

Davidson still hasn't consistently got back into the sub-44s yet. If Porsche can find their slick pace then the #8 will be caught quickly.

The #8 must have some kind of problem, but we have no idea what.

Moody confused as to what pit lane we're using again. I know ELMS used the other pit lane, but Copse hasn't been turn 1 of this circuit for a long time.

Yes, it rebalances from understeer due to the broken bar to closer to neutral.

Same. The standard of driving has been excellent. I'm enjoying no full course yellows.

Davidson has properly picked up the pace again.

Interesting that they went straight to a FCY rather than a Slow Zone. Is the Slow Zone experiment now over? Haven't seen one since Le Mans last year.

I think they decided to only use them at Le Mans, unfortunately.

I hope he's been spending time with Lapierre ...

Jokes aside it looked like he got on the paint and didn't notice the rain at that part of the track. He's talking though, and appears to be ok.

Not the best way to start your LMP1 career. Doesn't look like the car will make it into the pits
