Whoa guys let's not get into an argument based on speculation. Nothing is "proved" until the runs are done--and more definitively after multiple runs are done--with paired runs done on the same day under the same weather conditions using excellent drivers. And, to clarify, what I said is "IMO, most knowledgeable auto folks would say that a second or so one way or the other on two single laps [done on different days, etc.] is far from definitive."

Agree with that. I'm not fighting with no-one. So the coclusion: M6 as it is laps the ring in 8:09 seconds although it can do better without the restriction. Faster or slower than the merc...all is redundant for the same reasons you say znod. Cheers...
