How come? Sunday was now exactly the same as four previous years. Friday and Saturday were both shorter than normally, so his starting position advantage would have been longer, but also the time he drove in equal starting position on Saturday would have been equally longer. The biggest difference was the absence of any super specials, which could have made the difference of those few seconds!
