Pace
| Metric | Value | Usual range | Rank | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Race pace | +1.50% | 1.42–1.94 | 43/54 | 13 |
| One-lap pace (qualifying) | +2.19% | 1.89–2.37 | 51/54 | 16 |
| Long run (practice) | +1.43% | 1.11–1.85 | 39/59 | 30 |
| Fast lap (practice) | +1.70% | 1.27–2.09 | 45/60 | 63 |
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) | 0.43% | 0.38–0.53 | 53/54 | 13 |
| Places gained grid → finish | +2.00 | 0.00–5.00 | 37/82 | 89 |
| Hides pace for qualifying | −0.98 | -1.93–0.05 | 50/49 | 19 |
| Races better than qualifies | −0.37 | -1.82–1.26 | 33/74 | 76 |
| Top speed | 346.2 km/h | — | 49/64 | 1728 |
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

Positions finished better (+) or worse (−) than the starting position suggests, per season.
| Season | Beats the grid | n |
|---|---|---|
| 2018 | −0.96 | 15 |
| 2017 | +0.66 | 14 |

Tyres
Tyre management
| Metric | s/lap | Usual range | Rank | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Race degradation (fuel-corrected) | +0.040 | 0.020–0.044 | 31/54 | 13 |
| Pace loss in the race | +0.016 | 0.001–0.024 | 21/54 | 13 |
Seconds lost per lap over a run. Lower is better: better tyre management.

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.
