well done.... From what I see, brake earlier for turn one... by a bunch. Use 4th gear, rest is just a matter of adjusting speed and use a little less brakes, but overall very good, specially for the amount of track time you have. I also saw some quick hands in turn 5, which is a plus, well done

R6, I notice changing from Nitto to Hoosier it has a lot more front break grip. I haven't been doing this for long so I am still learning. I noticed Hoosiers offer a lot more benefit than any other tire I used. Even as bad as they got late Sunday I could easily feel when they were about let go.

That is very precise, great driving. T1 4 sure and I think there is a half second or second right there.
Your shift points out of T7 tell me that these R6 are every healthy.
Great R6 are prolly 3 second faster then RA1 in hot weather. in cold weather maybe only a second.
Good R6 VS bad R6 is 4 seconds and 16 sessions so its hard to be consistent with R6.
Keep an eye on them, some people like them, I hate them because in my case there goes something wrong too often with R6..
It's like crack...But that is a fantastic lap R6 or not.

really very good driving. you are at the driving point that gets to be much less fun because it's a lot harder and more dangerous to pick up much more speed!
Few subtle things: Turn in a bit earlier for 17 (make it almost a double apex) and brake later. You actually missed the t17 apex just a bit (one of the few you missed). You'll know you hit the apex because the car will bounce even harder. If you get the car rotated a bit earlier on the back half of 17, you can get on the gas earlier.
try to get the car a little more to the right for the sweeper at t5.
get more left at entry to 15, more right at second part of 15 and more left at entry to 16. You could also stay on the gas harder/longer all the way through 14, no need to short shift.
Really just subtle stuff, overall very good driving.

Absolutely agree with first sentence.
The rest is what others say as well and you are probably right and they would apply to me as well as I seem to place the car the same way and can't get faster when I try to do it the other way.
I have 100's of days at Sebring, senna maybe what, 14? Just saying if you look at it like that, it is even more impressive how fast he got very quickly. Now time to apply it on many tracks

Thank you all very much for taking the time, I truly appreciate it!
Also, someone told me something this weekend that stuck with me. This person said, at the limit the margin for error is much smaller. He then said, nothing bad has happened to you yet, bad like losing control and learning from it. I know it is coming, and I am just visualizing how to use run off and like he said learn from it.
I am enjoy very much the journey so far!
Thank you all again!
