⚔️ USA RACE H2H | CLEAR AIR PACE #F1 #USGP 🇺🇸

📊 Clean Air Pace Analysis – Methodology (2026) 🔍 976 laps reviewed individually for this analysis ⛽ Fuel discount (0,0375s) and track improvements (0,020s): 0.0575s/lap 🇺🇸 ✍️ Notes: Sainz’s first stint has been disallowed due to damage 🔬 Methodology for the 2026 season Based on the experience gained from previous seasons, and taking into account the circumstances created by the new regulations, the methodology has been revised for 2026. For this season, in addition to using each driver’s clean-air laps, the sample may also include laps completed in traffic when appropriate, provided their lap times remain broadly in line with what they would have been in clean air. This is done to obtain a more representative final figure. A track evolution factor has also been introduced, improving the comparison between laps completed at different stages of the race. Every lap completed by each driver is analysed individually to remove those that are not representative, including traffic, unusual laps, off-track moments, pit stops, unlapping laps, etc. This also applies to laps completed in clean air that are deemed unrepresentative for any other reason. Once this filtering process is complete, the sample is analysed team by team to find the fairest possible comparison, matching the number of laps, degradation, timing within the race and tyre compounds wherever possible. When this cannot be achieved, the best possible approach is used to extract a representative figure rather than simply declaring the comparison void. Laps marked with a grid are estimated links, calculated from the average of the representative laps at either end of that driver’s sample. They are used to equalise the comparison and minimise the removal of representative laps solely for compensation purposes. ⚖️ Weighting of each Grand Prix in the final comparison For the 2026 season, not every race will contribute equally to the final comparison of team-mate pace. Instead, the weighting of each Grand Prix will depend on the size and quality of the available sample. This means that races with larger and more reliable samples will have a greater impact on the overall season result. Special thanks to @rekii_dzn for creating the template🧑‍🎨
