Grid to flag

Lines run from grid slot to result, ending at the last lap completed. A dashed line ending in a cross is a driver not classified. Nothing between is recorded, so a crossing is not an overtake at that lap.

Before knock-out qualifying arrived in 2006 there is one time per driver; from 2006, the best lap of each of the three sessions.

Pit stops

Bars run in finishing order, ticked on each lap a driver stopped. An unticked bar may hide a stop: F1DB’s record has gaps. A cross is a driver not classified. Only the lap is recorded: not a stop’s length, tyres or gain.

Pairs of classified drivers who started or finished next to each other, each with a stop recorded; the two names in a row are in grid order. Both are read from the stops F1DB records, which has gaps. It is the order things happened in and no more: with no stop duration and no lap times, the record cannot say whether stopping first won or lost a place.
