2004 Laps Led

Much is made of how many laps people lead in American racing (NASCAR, Champcar, Evil Racing League etc) but not much is said about it in Aus.

Anyway, I counted 'em all, and here are the results.........

Ambrose 255
Bright 121
R.Kelly 77
Murphy 66
Skaife 60
Tander 38
T.Kelly 22
Baird 18
S.Richards 16
Wills 10
Morris 8
Johnson 8
Wilson 7
Besnard 6
Longhurst 4
Winterbottom 3
Tratt 3
Noske 3
Dumbrell 3
Brede 2
Ingall 1
Bargwanna 1
Bowe 1
Weel 1
McConville 1

LOL @ Russ and McConville, 2 race wins and 2 laps led between them!

With the pitstops TKR have gained a few more than CPR.
If were a sprint type race it would show a pure speed difference.
Interesting

In the three "sprint races" so far this year (Pukekohe, 3 x 100Km 0 pitstops), there were no lead changes in any of the races!

R1- Ambrose 36 laps led
R2- Bright 36 laps led
R3- Bright 36 laps led

Thank god for pitstops!

Interesting out of the 25 to lead laps this year, neither of the FPR cars are in there!

There is only one lap worth leading, all the others are just fluff

Mickcals has a lot of promise if they can keep it on the circuit!
Russel Ingall has led more laps than that at the QLD 300 he was leading most of the race until Ambrose over took him in the pits

Must be a different dimension - in 2004 Ingall led for zerolaps.

Laps 1-31 Ambrose
32-34 S Richards
5-36 Tander
37-37 Dumbrell
38-90 Ambrose

The only thing Ingall did was set a race fastest lap of 1:11.6701 which stood for 17 min 40 before Bright set eventual fastest race lap of 1:11.6319

No but I used their site to get the statistics (not hard to find) http://www.racetime.com.au/?event=x0...15&view=result and quickly showed Ingall never led the race.

Im pretty sure McConville has only led a quarter of a lap this year!

Interesting to see Skaifey having lead the 4th most laps this year. Considering he is 19th in the standings.

deeks6 User has been fined for unsportsmanlike behaviour!
Here's a different slant:

Ford (9 drivers) 285 laps
Take out Ambrose - 8 drivers, 30 laps led

Holden (15 drivers) 450 laps

Should this go in the Parity thread?

Stats tell you something about a race that pure results cannot - even looking at lap charts don't always tell you the real story of an event.

Pity that AVESCO's results remove lap 1 times and any lap time over 10 minutes (idiotic decison IMHO)

Watching the actual event can be fairly illuminating too.

ufortunately, in australia being the first car after the safety car does not necessarily mean you are the race leader..
