Suzuka test complete

We got both good and bad results.
The good result is that John made it into the 4-second range.
The bad result is that the engine blew up.
Coco and Alan are in the 5-second range and can consistently lap around the 6- to 7-second mark, so I think the team is on a good pace.
However, the engine is a real issue!!
We have no choice but to inspect every single engine we have on hand and deal with it.
It would be one thing if we only had the Suzuka 8 Hours, but we have the race at Spa coming up too!!
We just have to do everything we can!!
The photo shows the dismantled engine that started acting up during the test.
