Maybe i was shifting too early ? I had set my shift light/beep to 6K so i wouldn't have to look at my tac. I had a few laps where i heard the beep far enough before the braking zone , so i was shifting into 6th and going WOT for some moments (hard to tell exactly how long)

how far up (RPM Wise) were you taking 5th ? Course i also had one lap where i went to about the rev limiter in 5th. (the first lap that i stayed on the gas after hearing beeps in 5th, i was coasting the last 1/10 of the straight away most of monday) As i just didn't think i could stay on the throttle as long as i was able to .
