Not trying to be mean, but I feel irresponsible just letting someone advise people based on left field opinions.

I know this is the common narrative, but friendly reminder he’s working a lot with professional coaching (probably more than almost anyone on here) and has tons of data acquisition (again more than most in this regard too).
At LRP on those 300 tw mismatch setups he’s within 1 sec of f8x on RRs (60 seconds). I’ve sat shotgun for a day and I can confidently say he’s driving the car.
Could he push harder on slicks? Probably but he’s not as Willy Nilly as it seems.
