Thanks, nice explanatory chart. You nailed it and it is in line with the fact that I pushed the car too hard during the session that finished to kill my tires. Instead of smoother line and more gentle throttle/brake use I went all out, generating too much understeer in hairpins and going past the optimum grip point in sweepers.

I also think I should have had my tire pressure slightly up and bit more camber which I'll work on for the next trackday.
