i thought so to. but then though maybe because its all new setup in an all new car they might be starting off at 900 to iron out all the bugs and sort suspension and stuff and then go up from there.
if its running 7.9 with 900 then its surely destined to progress by a decent margin from there with a few hundred more.
how did things go yesterday was it due to race ?
