Re: Female Racing Drivers

This in turn feeds into the Champions Of The Future programme. At the same time Jamie Chadwick has laun...

Re: Silly Season 2025
I'm hoping a knock on effect of Bearmans impressive stand in, is that teams are more open to taking a punt on new talent rather than sticking with safe , but frankly uninspiring old hands. I do understand, even 1 extra point gained from a driver having experience means they would take them. From a f...

The teams are assets in themselves now. Gone are the days they were a bottomless money pit. The Mercedes F1 team costs Mercedes nothing. The pressure of "race on Sunday, sell on Monday" is no more.

Re: Female Racing Drivers
Agreed - that was my point, but you made it much more clearly! Worth remembering F1A is run to race time not number of laps, so throw in a safety car or two as they had, and it's vital that the team keeps the driver informed as the race approaches the end.

Plus what was possibly worse, and the part that actually incurred the penalty was that Pin carried on a full lap at racing speed while the pitwall were doing fist bumps.

Interesting data, thanks. Regarding Russell, I'm curious why the graph looks like George should be ahead, while your conclusion is that Lewis is (quite clearly) ahead?

Ultimately it's results that count - so that's what I've done, you are of course free to ignore! That's fair enough, just pointing out a significant confounder in the data. What does generate those early spikes in each pairing is early in a season where drivers are classified despite not finishing....

Re: Hamilton Vs Teammates
I exclude DNf's so they have no impact. That is not strictly true because Hamilton was almost always ahead when either driver suffered poor reliability or crashed out. So actually you are reducing Hamilton's margin. There was 20 DNFs between the pair and Hamilton was ahead when either of their cars...

Re: Hamilton Vs Teammates
The Hamilton vs Button gap is hurt hugely by the distribution of Hamilton's and Button's DNFs.

That said, no teammate had enjoyed the consistent advantage Butt...

Maybe, it's confusing.
