If you look at your turn 1 exit you are not using the whole track. This makes you loose speed for the full run through Eau Rouge and up the hill. All that extra speed he is carrying trough Eau Rouge is used to stabilise his speed higher than yours on the straight. The slowest speed he was doing in Eau Rouge was 230 kph whilst yours was 223 kph. At the same time your fastest speed before the drop in speed was 231.

Thats just a small analyse of the first corners really. If this carries on for the full track I can easily see a few seconds there.

I haven't driven this car myself on this track so I don't have much of a reference except for the youtube clip.
