Pace
| Metric | Value | Usual range | Rank | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Race pace | +0.76% | 0.50–1.06 | 22/54 | 204 |
| One-lap pace (qualifying) | +0.91% | 0.43–1.25 | 20/54 | 139 |

| Fast lap (practice) | +0.77% | 0.45–1.23 | 11/60 | 439 |
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.

| Top speed | 362.4 km/h | — | 17/64 | 16178 |
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.

Tyre management
| Metric | s/lap | Usual range | Rank | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Degradation in practice · Hard | +0.123 | 0.061–0.184 | 3/6 | 4 |
| Degradation in practice · Medium | +0.512 | 0.420–1.252 | 29/34 | 18 |

| Race degradation (fuel-corrected) | +0.037 | 0.014–0.070 | 23/54 | 168 |
| Pace loss in the race | +0.015 | -0.006–0.050 | 20/54 | 168 |
Seconds lost per lap over a run. Lower is better: better tyre management.
