F1 telemetry from Monaco

[Mrs Pitstop]

Forgive me if this is a repost, i'm looking on my phone and can't see that anyone has posted this already.

An F1 team left a sheet of telemetry behind in Monaco, and the experts have looked at it & come up with this. Makes for interesting reading...

Fascinating stuff, I'm sure a seasoned F1 engineer could identify the drivers from that graph & those driving syles alone.

Or a charged KERS. The difference between the drivers is striking; one is mashing all of the controls as hard as possible it would seem, the other being silky smooth. I'm thinking McLaren.

I think that those are the graphs for Schumacher and Rosberg. There are one or two comments on the bit about the braking graphs that seem very Schumacher at Monaco esque.

My thoughts also.

The red trace is a little slower through some corners, and the corresponding throttle pickup is smoother. It does smack of a McLaren print of a lap.

I was reading the blue as the smoother of the two.

If I remember correctly, weren't Hami/BJ pretty evenly matched at Monaco in the sessions before the race?

Would get my vote too.

That is a great breakdown of a data sheet.

Good find Sarah.


I'm going for McLaren or Sauber (pre-qually).

In the text it says it's FP1 and therefore hard to know if it's a fair comparison of 2 drivers given the setups could be massively different.

Interesting though. I'd put my money further down the grid than McLaren or Merc. Was anybody trying out a new test driver in FP1 at Monaco?
