So apparently this lap time wasn't just bad due to Uwe Sener that is usually quite slow compared to other drivers. It was also just 2 degrees Celsius, which is way too cold for the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup R-tires.

Usually the Z06 handily beat the 992 GT3 which is 3.3 seconds ahead, so could be even faster.

Agreed, I'm underestimating only cuz the Ferrari Pista did a 1:45.9

Yeah there are some "shady" lap times there compared to other tracks/magazines. Let's give them the benefit of the doubt and think that some cars aren't properly tuned/dialed in while all Porsches run on 110% of their ability...

Lol, yet on Balocco Porsche's are the ones being sandbagged for once...

I wonder what Christian Gebhardt could do with the car.

btw they said in 2023 they would relap this car in warmer conditions, still think it will happen?
