MEXICO CITY GP - RACE
MEXICO’S MOST COMPREHENSIVE PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS
⛽️Fuel-corrected laptimes vs 🛞tyre age
Mediums or softs, fresh or worn - it didn’t matter: NOR had a huge ~0.4s advantage all else being equal!
Only exception: end of the soft stint, when VER and SAI were quickest!
LEC was 2nd fastest on mediums, with excellent wear; his wear was instead severe on softs.
Answering this before it gets asked:
'Why did your race pace analysis show that BEA had better pace than LEC on average, yet this new graph shows that he was slower?'
Because BEA did one more stop than LEC: on equally-worn tyres, BEA was indeed slower. However, he had, ON AVERAGE, less-worn tyres, so he was quicker on average (still not enough to offset the extra stop)!
The same applies to the other one- vs two-stopper comparisons.

Formula Data Analysis MEXICO CITY GP - PRACTICE 2 | LONG RUNS 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!
