Pace
| Metric | Value | Usual range | Rank | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Race pace | +0.48% | 0.11–0.96 | 7/54 | 60 |

| Fast lap (practice) | +0.80% | 0.38–1.25 | 16/60 | 202 |
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.

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.

| Pace loss in the race | +0.006 | -0.015–0.031 | 8/54 | 60 |
Seconds lost per lap over a run. Lower is better: better tyre management.
