SEASON INSIGHTS

The gap between first and second in each championship after every round, and who held it. A lead of zero is a tie broken on countback — most wins, then most seconds — which is how the regulations break it.

Every driver's total split four ways: race wins, second and third, fourth to tenth, and sprints. Counted from round 1 to the last round in the range. Problems are retirements, non-starts and disqualifications.

Classification by round. Brighter is better; the summary columns use their own scales.

Position from the deepest segment reached. Brighter is better.

The slot the car actually took at the lights, once the stewards had finished with the qualifying order. Compare it with Where they qualified above: a car further back here was penalised, a car further forward was promoted by someone else's penalty. The offence itself is not published in the timing data, only its effect.

Each team's fastest lap of qualifying, as a percentage off the quickest team that round. Closer to the top is quicker. The reference is always the fastest of all eleven teams, so filtering the field never moves the baseline.

Each driver's average position inside each segment — Q1 ranks every car, Q2 only the cars that got through, Q3 the top ten — so an average is over the rounds that driver actually ran that segment, and the count beside it says how many. Brighter is better, on each segment's own scale. Rows are in order of average classified position.

Same car, same weekend — the only fair comparison in the sport. A classified finish beats a retirement; rounds where neither was classified are no contest.
