Push, tight, in a steady-state turn, our cars <wink> understeer which makes it impossible to effectively use the engine to modulate F/R weight bias. Who, at the traction limit, wants to slow down just to get it to turn? Extremely frustrating.

Felt? Yeah, I'd say that was a pretty obvious dig. I thought pole position meant you get the best spot. Obviously out of my league here. That's why I only lurk in the F1 thread.
