But the wings are low, CG is much lower, the weight distribution is completely different.

Weight distribution is different, but down force equates to weight. The tar wear should be similar.

That said, some teams ran three sets of rights to one left with all the wear being on the right side. I’m sure the Indy cars are using all four to hold the track, not just the right sides.

One of the discussions said the drivers at the test thought the ones GY brought were too hard and they wanted softer. Wonder if they changed compounds without even testing?
