Exacatacly.
They need to be able to race at the cars' limits of grip under braking, cornering, and acceleration at every corner on every lap for the entire race. Not at the limits of tires intentionally designed to wear at an artificial rate, not at the limits of the many system's cooling as dictated by following distance, nor at the limits of downforce diminished by clever disruptive aero tricks incorporated into the car in front. Balls to the wall for 70 laps with the only stratergy being "drive as fast as you goddamn can, son".
