Hamilton stunned by Red Bull lap times
Hamilton stunned by Red Bull lap times - GPUpdate.net
2008 Champion and last year’s Hungarian Grand Prix winner Lewis Hamilton finds it hard to believe how much quicker Red Bull Racing are at the Hungaroring this weekend, with his fifth-placed McLaren an enormous 1.7 seconds off Sebastian Vettel’s pole position time.
Hamilton broke his 2009 duck to win as reigning Champion for the first time a year ago although repeating the feat is set to be almost impossible tomorrow.
“It's not a case of a tenth or two here and there, but a second in the middle sector and half a second in the last sector! Lewis told reporters in the FIA media pen. “We look at the onboard footage and just laugh - that's just insane, how fast they are!
“Our car is the best is it has ever been but I don't know what the hell they’re doing…it's incredible, the pace they have here. We'll do the best job we can and I'm ready for it, bring it on!”

I politely disagree dude.
I've said it for almost a year on this forum.
It's Adrian Newey, that guy is always planning and designing. He's not a single plan guy. He has plans B through Z prepared. If this gets banned, I have these as backup.

Cheating, bending the rules, different interpretation of a gray area in the rule book.
If a team can get away with it then shame on the others for not doing the same. Good luck catching up.

Whatever was off last week they obviously identified and fixed. I think it's all part of Neweys and teams development, as an example, look at the previous years times, it's always getting faster and faster.
Besides, cheating is just an interpretation of the rules, right?
We have a saying: If you're not cheating, you're not trying ;-)
