Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
"Multi-dollar revenues" gave me a chuckle. But on a serious note, Brawn is a genius and I'm happy to listen to anything he says.
That said, I don't like the move to use machine learning to create better "F1 insights". That seems both fairly low-value and risks a slide towards ever more predictable races.
It would be a bold step, but a far better way to get value out of this data would be by making (some of) the telemetry public. I think the 'engagement' would be a lot deeper than an extra graphic or too. As a bonus, it could also allow F1 to ride the crest of 'big data' hype -- the amount of data on race weekends is about right for current big data products. I'm sick of seeing the New York taxi data set in every demo -- but it's one of the few real-world, public data sets out there.
I know teams don't like giving that stuff away, but if we're talking about budget caps, we should talk about data-sharing too.
The best part of this isn't the new graphics, it's that the race director can more easily tell what's going on.
Instead of seeing midfield overtakes only in replays, the director gets advanced warning, knows that pack leader action is not about to happen (even if it looks like it) and he can cut to the midfield action straight away.
If someone's tire starts acting weird, the system could serve up the correct onboard camera angle with the infrared overlay turned on. The director would get this option long before radio of the situation could filter back to him, with no fumbling to set up the shot.
We'll get to cut to the action right before it happens, instead of right after. That matters more to audience engagement than any number of graphs.
Bwoah I dont know if thats actually a good idea. From a computer science perspective I love it, but I dont really want to know during the pitstops if the undercut/overcut worked. Because I literally see it a few seconds later and its the exciting part. Because I am pretty sure the prediction will be really great probably already next year. machine learning is scary in that regard.
So I am torn, but the overall car performance graphic is nice!
1:39:30 - Ross Brawn comes on
I like this but the overtake probability i am not sure about.
1:38:50 neeooowwwww!
I would really really really like it if they just fixed the graphics they have currently.
Interesting but I'm not super interested in any of these graphics. Like others have said predictability will ruin most (my) excitement.
