    2. Defining the contexts for each period
    3. An efficient visual in communicating the overall story

      No joke, the details of specific rule changes and how they altered times (specifically the past 20 years) is fascinating stuff. I felt the tyre specs were not highlighted enough. Seems every year they are altering the tyres in some way or another. Races were way more interesting when the tyres were not as refined as they are now. Seeing lap times drop by a second when they finally went off was a show in and of itself.

      @@darrinkinney2268 I agree on the tyre front, however I think given the volume of changes and complexity of comparisons as you move from tyre brand to tyre brand it would likely be a video in it's own right, one I'd certainly enjoy!

    What a tremendous video! I can't fully comprehend the effort that went into not only researching but producing the video. I really appreciate the addition of the lower racing categories and having the HAND DRAWN chart frequently reappear with the important annotations, perfectly augmented with subtle animations; and not cheapened with the need to include memes. Great job!

      How did you handled wet races? If something increases lap times, it is rain by a lot. I think this factor makes it really difficult to compare. Especially at Spa where you have even different conditions throughout a race weekend or a single lap every year.

    Having a tyre war also has a big effect on the F1 lap times, when F1 moved to single spec control tyre in 2007, lap times were about 2 to 3 seconds slower than in 2006's tyre war between Bridgestone and Michelin

    Amazing work! Would be interesting to see a relative instead of absolute graph, as naturally the improvements in seconds will diminish as a laptime is reduced, while it may still be a comparable improvement in terms of percentages. For example going from 120s laptime to 110 is the same relative improvement as going from 60s to 55, even though on your graph it looks like it's only half as good.
