The stand out for me is how much the F82 benefitted using MP4S. That's a crazy decrease in lap time by just swapping MPSS with MP4S.
This says to me that tyre advancement is a significant factor in the G8x lap time improvement. Which makes total sense to me as the sum of the improvements were not adding up to a significantly faster platform.
