Thank you, I used a cheap, easy built in function in excel, but that makes it hard to show certain things in a single plot.

I tried to show the spread. Then you can see cars that were faster for a few laps and those that won over longer periods. It was quite nice and then when Racecar Engineering did the same I was very happy!

Sector 3 (average, deficit, standard deviation), based on all S3 times below 99.0 seconds.







Unsurprisingly, S3 shows the largest standard deviation since traffic hurts laptime the most in S3.

The cutoff laptimes that I used for the dry laptimes in each sector are on the surface not obvious, but when looking at the laptime distribution in the histogram layout, it's obvious that this is where the bell curve ends for the dry laptimes and where the second "bell" begins for the wet laptimes.

As an example, for Toyota laptimes:




In theory, I could rewatch the race, mark the lap numbers where the rain was, and then filter based on lap number but this would be incredibly tedious. I prefer the easy way out...
