It would be interesting if you just for a test went straight through Eau Rouge just cutting the corners and see where your speed would settle on the straight with the default setup. If it still settles below his speed then we can assume he does indeed have another setup.
Considering a setup and hitting all the apexes and using the full track it does feel possible. There are so much variables in a lap including braking zones, braking technique, time between power and brake and then back to power, apexes, entries, exits and much more. Then you start adding traffic and actual racing it all gets complicated.
I do like your threads Pete as it is a subject that is highly interesting. I myself have the same thoughts when I try hot laps and then compare them and realise I'm not as fast as I feel I am.
