Pace
| Metric | Value | Usual range | Rank | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Race pace | +0.51% | 0.19–0.78 | 9/54 | 164 |
| One-lap pace (qualifying) | +0.85% | 0.36–1.30 | 15/54 | 113 |
| Long run (practice) | +0.75% | 0.35–1.14 | 10/59 | 282 |
| Fast lap (practice) | +0.74% | 0.40–1.20 | 9/60 | 333 |
Percentage above the fastest rider of each session (median over all their sessions): 0% would mean always being the fastest. The usual range goes from their good quartile to their bad one. Rank: among all riders with enough data.
Style
| Metric | Value | Usual range | Rank | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Consistency (pace variation) | 0.27% | 0.20–0.35 | 13/54 | 133 |
| Places gained grid → finish | +1.00 | -2.00–5.00 | 51/82 | 123 |
| Hides pace for qualifying | +0.01 | -0.54–0.65 | 24/49 | 112 |
| Hides pace for the race | −0.08 | -0.67–0.55 | 31/38 | 64 |
| Qualifying specialist (+) or diesel (−) | −0.17 | — | 39/43 | 113 |
| Races better than qualifies | +1.37 | -0.31–3.32 | 7/74 | 94 |
| Top speed | 364.8 km/h | — | 9/64 | 12488 |
Descriptive: how the rider has done so far, not a prediction. "Hides pace" is not very stable from one year to the next: always look at the usual range.
Race and qualifying
Racecraft by phase
Positions gained (+) or lost (−) in each phase versus what the rider’s position would suggest, over 42 races. Descriptive.
Races better than qualifies?
Positions finished better (+) or worse (−) than the starting position suggests, per season.
| Season | Beats the grid | n |
|---|---|---|
| 2026 | +2.82 | 7 |
| 2025 | +0.80 | 19 |
| 2024 | +0.26 | 16 |
| 2023 | +0.90 | 12 |
| 2022 | +1.13 | 16 |
| 2021 | +2.27 | 12 |
| 2020 | +2.84 | 12 |
Q2 risk
Over 69 Q2 sessions since 2021. Disaster = best lap more than 1% slower than the others' median.
Tyres
Tyre management
| Metric | s/lap | Usual range | Rank | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Degradation in practice · Medium | +0.356 | 0.235–1.130 | 21/34 | 15 |
| Degradation in practice · Soft | +0.285 | 0.249–0.386 | 8/13 | 6 |
| Race degradation (fuel-corrected) | +0.045 | 0.015–0.078 | 37/54 | 133 |
| Pace loss in the race | +0.025 | -0.005–0.059 | 38/54 | 133 |
Seconds lost per lap over a run. Lower is better: better tyre management.

Circuits, team and injuries
Strongest and weakest circuits
Over one lap · Strong at: QAT (+0.62) · Weak at: AUT (−0.41), EMI (−0.95), ITA (−1.45)
In races · Strong at: ARA (+0.39) · Weak at: VAL (−0.37), AUT (−0.54)
Affinity: how much better (+) or worse (−) the rider performs at this circuit versus their own average, in percentage points of gap. Only cases with enough signal are shown.
Against the teammate

| 2020 | Repsol Honda Team | Stefan Bradl | 7–4 | 6–5 | 74–27 |
Who finishes ahead in the races both started; a retirement loses to a classified finish. With fewer than 8 races together it is only indicative.
