Have to say, I'm not a fan of this approach. If you don't think your process is leading to rapid enough equalisation of performance, change the damn process don't just fiddle the numbers! (Specifically, in this case, I would weight more recent races more heavily in the rolling average).

How did nobody tell me Nissan had made a pixel art Formula E arcade game? I mean, it's nothing special but it is a bit of fun... nismoelectricracer.com

The full-ish quote regarding the hate towards Yuki before someone quotes without reading the article

FFS stewards make your damn minds up is this offence the driver's fault or the team's fault, and is it a sporting problem or a safety one? (the last three drivers I know of who've done it - Mahaveer Raghunathan, Doriane Pin and now Wurz - have all got completely different penalties)

DRIVERS BEFORE SCREENING: "How do we say that we hate it, btw?" PUBLICISTS: "Oh, just say something about how it's a Hollywood movie for a broader audience"

I feel like both halves of that offence are quite difficult to pull off, due to a) Monaco and b) free practice

"Is that Ollie? Jesus, look at that lean..." "This is Yuki now!" Max Verstappen, Alexander Albon and Gabriel Bortoleto checking out pictures of today's #F1 drivers in their karting years. Video: Automobile Club de Monaco

Oliver Bearman with an Outrun reference T-shirt I knew he was a good 'un. (The less said about Lando's fashion choices the better).

F3 is much more balanced in terms of championship position of the odd/even groups. In fact, if you remove drivers not competing in Monaco from the standings, up until Charlie Wurz in net 15th but with the #6, everyone in an odd/even championship place has an odd/even race number.

Odd numbers are 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 7th, 10th, 14th, 15th, 16th, 20th and 21st in the championship, while even numbers are 3rd, 5th, 8th, 9th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 17th, 19th, 18th and 22nd. Feel like they should have split them by championship position instead of race number.

Right no sane person would watch two FRECA races in one night so I'm going to finish off with some ELMS Le Castellet as a palate cleanser.

Right well having watched two GB3 races it's only right that I should watch some FRECA to make a proper scientific comparison isn't it? Content warning: FRECA. Also Doriane is in this race and it goes badly IIRC so.... www.youtube.com/live/W3KnhF-...

Next up, reverse grid race. Wait, would that make it 3BG? Anyway here we go: www.youtube.com/live/jl_6uam...

Right I went out with family and ate too much food so now spending like two hours doing motorsport catchups and pedalling a desk bike. Accordingly, there will be rewatch threads. First, GB3 at Zandvoort, Race 2 (this one is normal grid, GB3's reverse grid is race 3). www.youtube.com/live/8IfrOoA...
