I split the track to 30 equal segments and calculated the standings in each segment, then calculated the gap to the car ahead and finally classified each gap into one of the 4 categories. Repeated the process for every Lap in the race and come up with this.

On the link there is also more precise data about the amount of seconds each driver spent in each category.

Also the order on y axis is as the drivers finished the race.

  1. Does this take into account lapped traffic? For example Piastri lapped both Aston’s and Hulkenberg. Also perhaps you should reduce the sizes of the bars of the retired drivers?
