Some trends are easy to spot (use the select none/all and teams buttons to compare different lines). That is converted into a percentage to give a simple and reasonable accurate view of who had the quickest car at each stage of the season:
To get a clear picture of the relative differences between all the cars, the chart below compares the fastest lap time of every car at every race weekend – including practice, qualifying and the Grand Prix. McLaren haven’t shown how they worked this out so pulling their numbers apart is a little tricky. Overall, then, this means our car was 0.074s per lap faster than the Ferrari. On race pace alone, he asserted, the MP4-25 was actually 0.136s per lap quicker than the Ferrari. Over the course of the 2010 season, said Tim, our qualifying pace was just 0.001s per lap slower than third-placed Ferrari – negligible. Here’s how McLaren made the case in a blog post two weeks ago that the MP4-25 was the second-fastest car of 2010:
With 15 pole positions in 19 races Red Bull were clearly the team to beat.īut which was the second-fastest car of 2010? McLaren recently argued it was their MP4-25 but a look at the data suggests a Ferrari F10 was the thing to have if you couldn’t get your hands on an RB6. There’s no question which team had the fastest car of 2010.
