Formula 1 will experiment again in 2020 with lots of new info graphics

Last season the Formula 1 already came with statistics about the tyres, chances of overtaking and many other graphical changes during sessions and that will again be the case in 2020 with now also new statistics about the performance of cars and drivers.

Even more information

Motorsport.com reports that as of 2020, Formula 1 has partnered with Amazon Web Services to add six new real-time graphics to a session. This will give fans more insight into real performance and how drivers relate to each other. How does this work exactly?

In order not to bombard fans with new statistics, the different graphics will be shown one by one throughout the year. We will already see the first graph during the Austrian Grand Prix and this graph shows the 'Car Performance Score'. This is a figure of the car based on grip, power, downforce and resistance.

Step by step

The second graphic can only be seen during the race at Silverstone and compares the speed of the drivers. With that statistic it should be possible to compare current drivers with drivers from the past. During the Belgian Grand Prix we see number three, in which we see how fast drivers are in different corners and how they relate to each other.

The second half of the season has not yet been completed in terms of races, but the other three graphics will also appear one by one in the races in that period. For example, we will get a 'Driver Skills Rating', a 'Car/Team Development and Overall Season Performance' graphic and the last one is a 'Qualifying and Race Pace Prediction'. All this should give the viewer just that little bit more information to enjoy all the action on the track even more.
