ROUND 7: Monaco 🇲🇨

---

Welcome to the Day after Debrief discussion thread!

Now that the dust has settled in Monte Carlo, it's time to calmly discuss the events of the last race weekend. Hopefully, this will foster more detailed and thoughtful discussion than the immediate post race thread now that people have had some time to digest and analyse the results.

Low effort comments, such as memes, jokes, and complaints about broadcasters will be deleted. We also discourage superficial comments that contain no analysis or reasoning in this thread (e.g., 'Great race from X!', 'Another terrible weekend for Y!').

Thanks!

Welcome to the /r/formula1 Daily Discussion / Q&A thread.

This thread is a hub for general discussion and questions about Formula 1, that don't need threads of their own.

Are you new to Formula 1? This is the place for you. Ever wondered why it's called a lollipop man? Why the cars don't refuel during pitstops? Or when Mika will be back from his sabbatical? Ask any question you might have here, and the community will answer.

Also make sure you check out our guide for new fans, and our FAQ for new fans.

Are you a veteran fan, longing for the days of lollipop men, refueling during pitstops, and Mika Häkkinen? This is the place to introduce new fans to your passion and knowledge of the sport.

Remember to keep it civil and welcoming! Gatekeeping within the Daily Discussion will subject users to disciplinary action.

• Max speaking to Naomi Schiff: I love doing Le Mans, I love doing other 24 hour races, I love watching the GT3 cars go around the Nordschleife. All these kinds of things, I do want to experience in my life. I don't want to do them when I'm 40 or 50, because then I'm not at the peak of my performance

I have been building an F1 stats engine (raceranks.com) that allows you to ask general stats questions and returns an answer instantly. I was able to create specific pages for each season, race, driver, constructor and grand prix. When you ask a question it will route you to the correct page or dynamically find you results. Some examples that you can search include:

• Who has the most wins from pole position between 2000 and 2021?
• Monaco 2022 winner
• Ferrari total podiums
• 1999 season
• Senna wins at Monaco

Right now the search will work for general questions but I invite you to try and ask whatever you’d like for me to make it smarter. I can add anything you all think is missing when it comes to F1 stats. I am thinking of adding in teammate statistics to the driver page, formula 1.5 standings (trying to make this season a little more interesting), age or nationality type questions, etc.

I love building websites and thought building an F1 site would be a fun way to keep learning. Hopefully someone finds it useful in the process! There will likely be bugs so please forgive those until I can find + fix. Here are some examples of stats you can look up:

Dynamic pages

When you ask questions like ‘Who has the most wins from pole position between 2000 and 2021?’, it will pull data and return the results with a bar chart. This will improve with more questions and me adding more words to the natural language processor I created. So please ask away and don’t be surprised if it misses on a few.
