435 Overtakes in 2017
Discussion
Someone at Pirelli has done some maths about the past season's passes using their own parameters to determine an overtake.
During the 20 races there were 435 overtakes which is 21.8 per race. Ricciardo tallied the most with 43 during the year, including 13 at Silverstone.
Unfortunately these numbers don't compare too favourably with last year which saw 866 overtakes in the 21 rounds despite the laptimes being 2.968 seconds faster.
