The car is quick, but not as quick as people are making out. there still only midfield at best.
the car was very fast at spa, and will be in monza, because all the aero on that car is all set up for low downforce, whereas the cars with alot of downforce such as the brawns struggled to get the setup.
Remember back to monaco when the mclarens were the fastest, despite having the worst car on the grid? because of the lack of downforce it helped it massivly on that one circuit.
This is showing up this season more then any other due to all the cars on the grid being completely different, and not carbon copies like previous seasons.
I do see them overtaking torro rosso though, FI updgrades seem to have improved the car alot, and the torro rosso just seems to be going downhill.
