If guy had labeled his video differently, it would have been fine. "Pushes hard", really

He's going on about how 'he' slowed him up in some sections or he could have got past. Sabine was slow in one section to be quick through the next two sections. It's a math problem...

He's not being honest with himself despite the fact he misses all sorts of apex's and you even hear him say the tires have given up not more then 3 minutes in...

He should be happy with his lap and the fact he can still see her instead of going on about the 'guy's been around here before'.

Wait till he sees the 'guy' in the car! Ball retraction mode...
Exactly what I was thinking.

He's lucky to have that video to study, though.
I think his bravery or ignorance is what got him around quick and the car's computers kept him on the asphalt rather than the grass.

Sabine was taking someone for a fun ride around the ring. If she thought she was racing this guy for a second, I have no doubt she would have passed over the horizon and he wouldn't have had her lines and relative speed to guide him.

sometimes it's much easier to follow a good driver.
