  2. VER faster on all the straights

  3. Corner Analysis of T5-6-7 shows VER can carry more speed through the high-speed corners and still be earlier on the throttle. VER VS RUS

  1. RUS was matching VER in the entirety of the first sector.

  2. VER maximizing his exits helps him to gain time in T 11,12,13

  3. Corner Analysis of T13 shows that RUS brakes deeper and is a bit abrupt whereas VER brakes earlier and carries a bit more speed through T13 and gets a better exit of the turn so gains the most time over RUS.
