Anyone have trap speed
Anyone have trap speed numbers? Dying to see the top speed of the Suzuki.
Vinales and Iannone, trancend the atmospheric otbit!

Scroll down to see the radar gun for the suzuki
337km/h according to their
337km/h according to their radar read. For comparison purposes, Vinales Q1 top speed from last season at Qatar was 332km/h. FP1 was 330km/h. He did hit 337km/h during the race, but I suspect that may be skewed by drafting. The data is a bit confusing looking at FP1 vs Q1/Q2 vs the race but needless to say it looks like Suzuki have found some better speed.
Honda
Seems to be sucking wind.
