I know money talks and there is a lot of it between those 2 particular countries but if it’s not safe to race then it just plain gets cancelled. They didn’t postpone the race in Imola when the region was unfortunately flooded.FittingMechanics wrote: ↑28 Feb 2026, 20:59I'd say very high chance of these races being cancelled or at least postponed.
That dataset being shown is 2025 race laptimes. I think you are confusing this with 2026 testing times.mwillems wrote: ↑01 Mar 2026, 06:35I can't remember who I was talking to when saying you cannot look at race sims on isolation. This is why. Its hard to ignore that across the board we have been slighlty the faster team.
It is still not representative, but that is the first compelling evidence that we are competitive.
what is the ordering theme, left to right ? most divergence -> least divergence ?SilviuAgo wrote: ↑01 Mar 2026, 01:16This is insane from @TrakSIms![]()
All 22,324 Race laps from 2025. Every compound. Every driver.
7 days until we start filling in 2026.

is a sort of fastest laps per driver. I also talked to TrakSim cause for eq in quali graph I think some adjustments need to be made to the median. Is strange Colapinto to be fastest on the grid, due to less wet sessions.venkyhere wrote: ↑01 Mar 2026, 08:07what is the ordering theme, left to right ? most divergence -> least divergence ?SilviuAgo wrote: ↑01 Mar 2026, 01:16This is insane from @TrakSIms![]()

And what mwillems was saying about 2026 testing is in this graph. Pre-season testing pace — top 25% of team laps.
Tiers feel fairly defined. Big 4 up front, with McLaren probably 4th right now. I'd have Haas over Audi, tight with Alpine. And if you squint hard at Aston Martin's best laps… they might not actually be last?

Anyway, amazing job to gather all this data and to show under this form.
Partly because they had this weird run plan running into the 37s each stint. Nobody can accurately guess the fuel loads, but the consistency is pretty impressive still. Makes sense for them to have the lowest median with such runs thoughvenkyhere wrote: ↑01 Mar 2026, 18:58Mercedes looks ominous, in the 2026 data.SilviuAgo wrote: ↑01 Mar 2026, 16:00is a sort of fastest laps per driver.
