Looking ahead to RACE PACE for Spain -- here are the race simulation / long-run lap times from FP2 for every team. Ferrari looks to have the edge on McLaren, who's a bit quicker than RB.

Attempts to explain probabilistic thinking to F1twt going about as well as expected.
Flawed approach for very obvious reasons.

Should point out that teammate quali gaps are measured by their last shared qualifying session. Makes the Ferrari gaps look off from the final result, but it is a more robust methodology in general.

Lewis Hamilton was a 40-1 shot to win pole in Spain and missed it by 6-hundreths of a second.
After topping another FP session, George Russell is an even bigger favorite for Pole now, implied to win 40% of the time. Kimi still with the second-best odds despite another relatively slow practice.

Ferrari was flying in the corners in Qualifying, posting the top two fastest average speeds. I think Leclerc had a real chance at pole without the crash.
