Where these numbers come from

Car pace is the blended qualifying gap to the fastest team over recent weekends, in seconds - a figure a reader can check against a timing screen, unlike a rescaled index. Race pace is a different measurement on the same car: the median green-flag lap on Sunday against the quickest car in each race, with the first lap, pit in-laps and out-laps and anything more than 7% off a driver’s own median taken out. It is a percentage rather than seconds because a tenth is a different share of the lap at every circuit. The two orders don’t always agree, which is the point of showing both. Points here are counted from the race classifications themselves rather than read off a standings table. Compare the field on the teams page or see the latest results.
