It was shocking to realise that 20% of the current #F1 grid is following my page! 🤯 (4 out of 20) Verstappen was the first to do so (in 2022), and since then he’s always won the WDC! The power of data analysis? 🤣👀 @Max33Verstappen @FranColapinto @PierreGASLY

What’s going on with Alpine? 🤔 In Mexico, every team went quicker in quali than last year - except for Alpine, which was 0.654s SLOWER! Gasly said he was satisfied with the progress from Friday to Saturday… yet he qualified 18th (8th last year) The team claims it’s focused…

In Mexico, every team went quicker in quali than last year - except for Alpine, which was 0.654s SLOWER!

Gasly said he was satisfied with the progress from Friday to Saturday… yet he qualified 18th (8th last year)

The team claims it’s focused…

So… I discovered something while digging through some old code of mine... Remember 🔵Red Bull's 'godly' DRS from 2023? It's back! In Mexico it reduced drag by an estimated 34.7% ✅ Others: 🟢Merc 34.0% ✅ 🟠McL 27.1% 🔴Ferrari 21.4% ❌ In Austin? Same trend! (lower values due…

Norris’ quali advantage looks to be confirmed in the race as well: he was quickest, the only top driver to use softs along with his teammate! Still, not quickest overall: BEA’s stint on Mediums was even quicker! #MexicoGP #F1

HAM reached 352km/h in FP2 already 😬 Williams and Mercedes exhibited the best top speeds on average McLaren was draggy, as expected, but less so than Haas and Racing Bulls #F1 #MexicoGP
