Tsukuba MR-2 -1 second
Vairano MR-2 -2 seconds
Hockeinhem MR-2 +2 seconds

I think there is some issue with Toyota Hock. laptime. Also comparing to other cars, it clearly should be around
1:20.0 - 1:20.5 there for sure.
Similar to Renault Megane RS Sport comparasion, Hock. time is with no know reason little back compared to Tsukuba and Vairano
