It was much faster that day. I will have to go back and watch the replay from that race and see if Flores had him geared down late or if he was just tiring. It's painfully obvious the track has played against speed of late, but MJ would still have been hard pressed to hold on for the full 1 1/4 setting those same fractions on a fair track.
