This year's F1 cars are faster than they were last year, when the lap record by Lewis Hamilton (in qualifying) was 1:42.553. Spa is a long circuit, it's not impossible that the F1s take back the record at the end of August.

In the two races so far, the qualifying lap times were about 1s and .8s faster than last year. A similar improvement for Spa would break the 1.41.770 time of the 919.

Either way, that Porsche is a fantastic monster of a car. I'd really love to see Porsche enter and compete in F1.

I wouldn't want to see them sponsor a team. They probably don't have the money to commit to that and win. On the other hand, it'd be fairly exciting to see them supply a drivetrain to one or two of the mid-level teams. (even developing that would be stupidly expensive, however)
