⚪️Haas -1.48 (Largest improvement)

👏5👍2🔥2
FASTEST SECTORS at Abu Dhabi GP:

-RB, McL quickest in Sector 1 (where the exit speed from the fast turn 1 is crucial)

-ALB was quickest in S2! The low drag helped on the two straights

-RIC was competitive in the twisty S3

LEC was more consistent than all-out fast

Gap to Verstappen

🔴Leclerc kept up with 🔵Max in the first stint: the gap was just 2s after 15 laps!

Red Bull became clearly superior Once both pitted for Hards. The RB19 is quick on all compounds and at different fuel levels👌

Perez was flying at the end!🚀

Average overtakes per GP

🥇🇺🇸Las Vegas GP has the highest number of overtakes on average by far! (99)
Future races should bring that number down, but it's a great start!

🥈🇳🇱Netherland 69
🥉🇨🇳China 60

Lowest:
🇲🇨Monaco 12
🇱🇺Luxemburg 8

Verstappen dominated this season like no driver before

19 Wins (Previous record: 15 - VER 2022)
86.3% Win Rate (Previous: 75% - Ascari 1952)
575 points (Previous: 454 - VER 2022)

He could have missed the last 10 races and still won the championship!

Perez and SAR reached 343km/h in the Abu Dhabi GP
PER reached 338km/h on average on his 15 fastest attempts!

Low drag car + Effective DRS +Frequent tows and DRS.

Fastest (PER) and slowest (TSU) both had HONDA PUs: that's why you don't estimate the power using race top speeds!

This season had 50 overtakes per race on average: the 4th highest value since 1984!

Would have been 44 without Zandvoort (186 overtakes, the all-time record)!

Ground effect helped.

2011 (when DRS was introduced) has the record: 66 overtakes/race.

The line indicates each season's average number of overtakes; each race is represented by a black dot.

DRS undoubtedly increased the number of overtakes, but it sometimes made passing too easy: what's your opinion?🤔

COST OF CRASHES💥💵

Williams suffered over 7 MILLION dollars (estimated) in crashes during this season - that's over 5% of the budget cap!

SAR alone caused over 4M$ worth of crashes.

SAI: +2M$ in last 2 races.

Teams like Mercedes will have more resources to develop their car.

How Leclerc ALMOST got P1 at the start of the #AbuDhabiGP🧐

He used more throttle at the start, keeping his revs higher
Both went 100% throttle after 3.3s

VER probably underestimated the available grip and reached 200km/h 0.2s later than LEC!

He kept P1 by braking later👌

🛞TYRE STRATEGIES - #AbuDhabiGP

Just TSU and OCO did a one-stopper, beating their teammates. TSU was aided by his starting position (6th vs RIC's 15th), but OCO started behind GAS: the one-stopper wasn't inherently worse👍

ALO's early stop (lap 12) hurt his pace💥
3👍1
RACE START ANALYSIS - Abu Dhabi GP:

LEC was quickest off the line: 0.2s quicker than VER to reach 200km/h, and would have gotten the lead if not for VER's very late braking.👌

BOT was QUICK on Hards! 🚀

ALB struggled the most: he needed 0.5s more than LEC to reach 100km/h! 📉
👍5
The ⚪️ Hard compound was way better than the 🟡Medium in the Abu Dhabi GP

-Less wear, as expected
-Slightly better pace at the beginning of the stint (drivers could do less tyre management).

One-step harder compounds would have been more appropriate, in my opinion.

DRIVERS STANDINGS EVOLUTION

🔵RedBull 1-2 since the very first race.

🟠McLaren's improvement has been outstanding. 📈

Ricciardo's return coincided with AlphaTauri's change in form (thanks to RedBull's rear suspension): he gained 5 positions in just one race! (P6 in Mexico).
5👏2
COST OF CRASHES PER DRIVER💥💵

Sargeant's salary was 1M$; but he cost an additional 4.3M$ in crashes!😳
Even worse, the driver's salary is not counted under the budget cap, but the cost of crashes is!

VER obliterated PER also concerning crash costs: starting first helps!
🌚3😐2👎1
FINAL DRIVER STANDINGS

Verstappen got over 26 points per GP, on average: that would not have even been possible before the introduction of the Sprint weekends!🤯

The fight for 4th place was fierce; after Abu Dhabi:
-SAI lost 3 places
-LEC gained 2
-ALO gained 1, getting P4!
