Blatant sandbagging is unnessary but may be a side effect of focusing on a specific program as mentioned in many posts. Silverstone is two weeks away, so suppose if Toyota were to find themselves slow at the prologue after running qualifying runs like Porsche, or in two weeks time at silverstone. It makes little difference in respect to the action plan they will have to come up with to win the race they
want to win the most in June.
