Track Limits until Silverstone

There's been a lot of debate about track limits, especially in regard to Kimi Antonelli so I thought I would look into it with the help of formula-timer, which helpfully provides data on track limits.

In Summary: Kimi Antonelli (24) has the second most track limits of all the drivers after Silverstone, behind Lance Stroll (36).

Up until Silverstone Antonelli had the most track limits, then Stroll managed to get a whooping 21 track limits in one race, putting him firmly in the lead.

Now this begs the question - how did their teammates fare so far?

George Russell 4 vs 24 Kimi Antonelli Fernando Alonso 7 vs 36 Lance Stroll

All other team pairs are within 5 track limits of each other. (Table and chart follow below)

Considering how one race skewed the data so strongly, the next question I asked myself was: Who got the most track limits per race?

Australia: No one got more than 1 track limit

China: Lindblad (2)

Japan: No one got more than 1 track limit

Miami: Leclerc (4)

Canada: Antonelli & Piastri (4 each)

Monaco: Stroll (7)

Barcelona: Antonelli (6)

Austria: Antonelli (3)

Britain: Stroll (21)

Once more Stroll (2x) and Antonelli (3x) are the outliers. Here Antonelli overall even did worse than Stroll.

Bottom row: Sum of track limits, blue highlights most track limits per race

Colors are not helpful here but it does visualize how both Stroll and Antonelli are outliers.

All of this data is to be taken with a grain of salt, there haven't been all that many races and I have only considered the races - if FP sessions and Quali would be included the picture would be a bit different. Still considering only one other driver even has above 10 track limits (Norris 11) both of them should probably work on that.

Sprint addition

No it didn't @lockedinabookstore , so below a look at that, but it just affirms the picture from before. Stroll gets up to 43 track limits and Antonelli up to 32.

When only looking at the Sprints Antonelli (8) is slightly worse than Stroll (7).

It only underlines the difference in comparison to the teammates too, less extreme because there are fewer sprints and fewer laps but it's a repetition of the previous pattern

George Russell 2 vs 8 Kimi Antonelli Fernando Alonso 3 vs 7 Lance Stroll

Most track limits per sprint:

China: No one got more than 1 track limit (only VER got 1)

Miami: Antonelli (5)

Canada: Antonelli (3)

Silverstone: Stroll (3)

Here Antonelli is once more the one who got the most track limits in several races and once more Stroll really had a horrible time in Silverstone.

Data for only the sprints:

Bottom row: Sum of track limits, blue highlights most track limits per race

Aggregated Races and Sprints

Bottom row: Sum of track limits, blue highlights most track limits per race - it really also underlines how much worse these two drivers are compared to all others. Only three other drivers have more than ten track limits over the season so far and Antonelli has 21+ while Stroll has 32+ more.

Here their outlier status becomes even clearer, it also shows that for notable part of the season so far Antonelli had more track limits than Stroll. After the sprint in Silverstone Antonelli had 25 vs Stroll's 22. The 21 from Silverstone almost doubled his track limits over the season.

This is hilarious to me because I kind of thought Kimi must be under additional scrutiny because he’s in the lead for the WDC at the moment. I’ve heard Lando flag to his engineer that Kimi’s over track limits a few times during races, so thought maybe that was part of it.

But Lance is arguably the worst driver on the grid despite having been in F1 quite a few years now, and rarely is someone behind him, so it seems that it isn’t about level of scrutiny, just one’s ability to colour within the lines 😅

Q: "do you ever think about your viral taylor swift duet with lando?"

oscar: "no, i try not to 😅 we've put our foot down to some of our content since that video. we're big swifties, as you could probably tell!"

[piastri-srimp]

Imagine asking Oscar, “do you remember the gayest piece of social media content you’ve ever done, and do you think about its impacts on your relationship with your teammate often?”
