    One of the rare stats to have gotten harder as the seasons have gone on and gotten longer

      The season is longer, but conversely the cars have never been more reliable. Back in the era of engines tuned to last for one race, mechanical DNFs were much more common.

        This is a fair point! I do think Piastri has an extremely level head considering his experience. I thought he’d give Norris a harder run this year but next year we shall see.

        I think next year there will be some fairly major driver shakeups ahead of 2026

          There are quite a few shakeups for next year already. I do not think drivers will change as much for 2026 because of the major rule changes.
