First of all, the Spider was much later in development. The chassis/suspension was so much more improved, as well as having an engine upgrade.

true, but even so nearly 2 seconds difference? unless the chassis and suspension upgrades were really good, then i think mclaren did a great job

Found out that this time was done by Davide Fulgazza, old 12C was done by the Maurizio Giani whos laptimes were slower by quite a bit so thats where most of the gap comes from
