Any ideas why AM has been struggling with pace recently? Are they slower now with recent updates? Or have others become faster?
Rumour is the car doesn't suit high speed corners, so they are probably going to do better at Hungary and Singapore but worse at Spa/Suzuka/Monza, if that is true then it's kind of ironic that a car that has performed extremely well this season is so bad at what are considered to be classic race tracks, time will tell I guess.
My prediction (admittedly wild) is that AM will be the next team to turn up with Red Bull copy parts, and gain a second+. They have had time to gather more data, manufacture upgrades for at least Fernando's car, and get them to the next race weekend after this upcoming weekend off.
I think they said those tracks don't particularly suit them but we'll see what happens in Hungary
