Good old MCN does it again. Two consecutive sentences from today's article comparing Haslam and Lavilla's riding style.

Haslam was trying to maximise corner speed, braking longer - but not as hard as Lavilla - then opening the throttle yards earlier than his team mate. But even though he was as much as 5mph quicker at the apex, riding on the ragged edge meant he missed apexes and was unable to get on the throttle anywhere near as early as Lavilla.

So, does Haslam get on the throttle yards earlier or nowhere near as early? I guess we'll never know

[ziggi]

Hmmm chaos theory - a million things that could just happen to change any given event. I applaud MCN for even trying to put into words why Haslam might not have braked/apexed/throttled harder than Lavilla

MCN....More **** and Nonsence...........

haslam is yards earlier on the throttle because lavilla is working in metric.
