Every now and then I did full throttle through turn 1 (~190) and didn’t brake until apex. My car can handle the weight transition but I don’t feel comfortable and it is unnecessary risk for a lapping day. You and I talked before and you know I am after relative pace of the chassis and setup, not just lap time.
I agree there is room for belauds to improve but saying he can improve 2 second by simply ride with you in your car is very irresponsible statement. If you want to help, drive his car and show him what line to take, where to brake, and when to turn in. Encourage him to mimic your line and turn in at a speed he is comfortable with. Then slowly pace up and work on brake point according to the speed. Again, you and I talked before and you know I am after consistency, not one lap wonder.

irresponsible? not really especially since belaud knows that i shit talk him and he shit talks me - its hard to truly understand internet sometimes
but regardless - im confident i can help belaud improve his turn 1 by showing what his car / my car can do in that sector
