52: The F1 Season in Numbers at the three-quarter stage

In F1 the numbers never lie – whether it’s the number of zeros on your pay cheque, the thousandths of a second on the stopwatch or the points of downforce on your new front wing.

By looking at the underlying numbers of driver and team performance we can spot trends and learn more about what’s really going on this season. 

We did this at the quarter stage and half stage and now after three quarters of this F1 World Championship we look again. 

To help James Allen find the numbers that count are friend of the pod, former Ferrari and Williams engineer and now data guru Rob Smedley. Autosport’s technical editor Jake Boxhall Legge and F1 writer Ronald Vording joins from Singapore.  

What is the most important number when it comes to Max Verstappen? What record could the pairing of Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll break later this season? Williams, Racing Bulls and Sauber have all made big points gains, but at whose expense?
