Pace
| Metric | Value | Usual range | Rank | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Race pace | +1.97% | 1.75–2.26 | 52/54 | 6 |
| One-lap pace (qualifying) | +2.08% | 1.94–2.41 | 47/54 | 6 |
| Long run (practice) | +1.71% | 1.32–2.19 | 41/59 | 10 |
| Fast lap (practice) | +2.13% | 1.58–2.50 | 51/60 | 21 |
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) | 0.23% | 0.20–0.31 | 2/54 | 6 |
| Places gained grid → finish | +5.00 | 1.00–8.00 | 2/82 | 11 |
| Races better than qualifies | −1.55 | -3.96–1.96 | 65/74 | 10 |
| Top speed | 340.1 km/h | — | 54/64 | 645 |
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.

Tyres
Tyre management
| Metric | s/lap | Usual range | Rank | n |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Race degradation (fuel-corrected) | +0.039 | 0.024–0.054 | 30/54 | 6 |
| Pace loss in the race | +0.017 | 0.004–0.033 | 24/54 | 6 |
Seconds lost per lap over a run. Lower is better: better tyre management.
