---- Indicates changes in track length and/or layout.
Note: Since 2006 the grid has been decided on a three-period knockout system.
The "pole time" is no longer necessarily the fastest time set during qualifying.
There have been 30 Grands Prix at Hockenheim,
16 have been won from pole position (last was Hamilton in 2008),
five have been won from second (R Schumacher in 2001),
two have been won from third (Räikkönen in 2006),
only one from fourth (Piquet in 1987),
and four from fifth (Irvine in 1999).
Two have been won from lower grid positions - Piquet in 1981 (6th)
and Barrichello in 2000 (18th).
Average grid position of winners = 2.667.

2007/2008 Comparison
====================
How does the fastest lap of the whole weekend (3 practice sessions, 3 qualifying
segments and the race) compare to the fastest lap of the weekend in 2007?
There was no Grand Prix at the Hockenheimring in 2007, so no comparison is
possible. The fastest lap of the weekend in 2006 was 1'13.778, set by
Michael Schumacher during the second qualifying session (Q2).

Interesting that 13 drivers were able to set higher speeds during the
race than in practice or qualifying. Also intersting to see who was
not able to improve - both Ferraris (although Kimi equalled his best
during the race), both Toyotas, both Renaults and Kovalainen.

Gearbox Usage
=============
Jo Bauer's Technical Report (click on 'Scrutineering Reports' on this page):
"http://www.fia.com/en-GB/mediacentre/pressinformation/f1pressinfo/germany/Pages/germany.aspx"
says that Massa, Trulli, Kubica, Piquet and Coulthard started the event
with new gearboxes. Massa and Trulli had completed four races with their
previous 'box, while the others had failed to finish the Silverstone event
and were entitled to a free change.
Gearbox Penalties

============================
2008 is the 11th season that I have posted these amateur overtaking
analyses. My intention was to allow easier comparisons between Grands
Prix, seasons, circuits, drivers, etc.
In order to make any meaningful and/or useful observations it is essential
to produce the stats in as consistent a way as possible. To do this I have
devised several "rules" that I try to follow for each event. Please note
before posting to complain that I missed an obvious passing manoeuvre that
it has probably been excluded because of one of my "rules". The rules are
outlined in the "Disclaimer" below - please read it.
This analysis was mainly derived from the official FIA lap chart, which is
usually available from www.fia.com, http://forix.autosport.com or
www.autosport.com/f1/ on race day or the following day. The original charts
remain copyright of the FIA.
Other excellent Formula One websites are available. This analysis is
completely unofficial.
Disclaimer
==========
For the purposes of this analysis, I only count what I will term "genuine"
passing manoeuvres, which means that I always exclude:
a) any place changes made during pit stops
b) all lapping or unlapping manoeuvres
c) any place changes made during the first lap
Hopefully, a) & b) are obvious. c) is because although lap one is often the
best opportunity to make up places, it is also not typical of the rest of
the race, and so, for the purpose of comparing races with other races and
seasons with other seasons, it is simpler to exclude lap one completely. I
do summarise the changes on lap one later in the post.
For the purposes of this analysis a "pit stop" encompasses the slowing down
lap and the out lap, since any passes during those laps MIGHT be due to the
driver slowing down or speeding up.
Passes are not counted in these stats UNLESS the gained position is held
until the start/finish line is next crossed and so gets recorded onto the
lap chart. I try to ignore anything that isn't recorded in the lap chart,
even if it was seen on TV.
These are the passes I read for the 2008 German Grand Prix:
Lap Place Passer (Passed)
==========================================
2 14 Coulthard (Rosberg)
2 16 Barrichello (Nakajima)
4 6 Räikkönen (Alonso)
11 19 Sutil (Fisichella) [team-mates]
13 13 Coulthard (Button)
17 17 Piquet (Nakajima) [1]
17 18 Sutil (Nakajima) [1]
28 19 Sutil (Fisichella) [team-mates]
Safety Car - laps 35-41
42 10 Räikkönen (Rosberg) [restart lap]
43 5 Kovalainen (Kubica)
44 9 Räikkönen (Alonso)
44 10 Rosberg (Alonso)
45 8 Räikkönen (Vettel)
46 7 Räikkönen (Trulli)
49 13 Fisichella (Coulthard) [1]
49 14 Nakajima (Coulthard) [1]
52 4 Hamilton (Kovalainen) [team-mates]
52 10 Alonso (Rosberg)
52 14 Coulthard (Nakajima)
57 2 Hamilton (Massa)
58 10 Rosberg (Alonso)
60 1 Hamilton (Piquet)
60 6 Räikkönen (Kubica)
60 7 Vettel (Trulli)
61 13 Coulthard (Fisichella)
That's 25 passes in total. There was no German GP last season, but the
equivalent European GP at the Nurburgring saw 18 passes.
1. Nakajima and Coulthard both had incidents which resulted in the loss
of two positions. My rules allow the loss of two places but not three,
so those passes get counted.
Most: Räikkönen 6
The Last 10 Seasons

To save space I have removed the columns for 1997-98 from this table. I
have included the data from those seasons in the Total & Avg. columns.

considered as equivalent to the European GP (1999-2007) - Europe-2. Europe-3
is the new Valencia venue. The 1997 European GP took place at Jerez (Europe-1),

(grid position after any penalties have been applied).
Obviously, a driver who often starts from pole position has very little chance
to gain places while one who usually starts at the back of the grid has a good
chance of gaining places.

Driver Rankings after Hockenheim
================================
Numbers in brackets () in second column indicate table positions before
adding the most recent GP (IE the change in table position).
GPs - number of GPs counted for each driver (from the last 100)
[-1] [+1], etc. - number of GPs deleted/added to driver's record since
the last event
PP - number of Pole Positions (in the last 100)
W - number of Wins (in the last 100)
FL - number of Fastest Laps (in the last 100)
Points - these are 'my' points, allocated for many & various things, not
just wins, poles, f.laps, etc.
[Change] - the change in points after adding the most recent GP data
** - current drivers
The Last 100 GPs (~6 years)
===========================
First race (#1) - United States GP, 29 September 2002 (GP #696)
Last race (#100) - German GP, 20 July 2008 (GP #795)

one position. Heikki Kovalainen breaks through the 1000 point barrier.

===============
The addition of the 2008 German GP results only changes the career
averages for the six current drivers who are ranked in the all-time
top 60.
Lewis Hamilton's second successive win increases his average by enough
to overtake Felipe Massa and Phil Hill, moving into 21st place. David
Coulthard falls one place, but the other current drivers maintain
their positions.
Current drivers are indicated by a '*'. Their averages are volatile and
will fluctuate from race to race.
Drivers with a limited number of starts are indicated by '%1', '%2' or
'%3' showing those with 25%, 50% and 75% of their respective averages.
