When IndyCar tested at COTA a few weeks ago the best time was about 14s slower than last year's F1 pole time. My guess is that the pole time this Saturday will drop a couple of seconds, so maybe the deficit will "only" be around 12s.
1:32.237 Lewis Hamilton pole time
1:46.626 Colton Herta on Feb. 13
Note that in 2018 IndyCar went with a new aerokit, reducing downforce by around 2,000 lbs, in an effort to improve the racing (the changes allow cars to follow each other closer). So that made the deficit to F1 that much worse.
