2022 Abu Dhabi GP: representative average race pace of each driver + Yas Marina race pace delta. Yas Marina race pace delta.

Race pace
The main idea of these charts is to show the representative average race pace of each driver. Since plotting the raw data will not show accurate information, the f1pace.com website did a bit of data pre-processing:

They removed the laps that were not raced under green or yellow flag conditions. This means that laps raced under Virtual Safety Car (VSC) or full Safety Car (SC) conditions were removed from the analysis.

The first lap is not consistent with the rest of the laps so it was removed from the analysis. Finally, laps in which a driver entered or left the pits are not “full laps”, so they were removed from the analysis as well. If laps were done with the intermediate or wet tires, then they were considered for this analysis. The box represents a modified box plot, with the line in the middle representing the mean (average) time done by each driver. The top and bottom lines respectively represent the 75% percentile and the 25% percentile.

The colors behind the box represent quantiles. There are 4 colours for each driver, with each colour representing a specific quantile. Quantiles with lighter colours include the fastest laps, while quantiles with darker colours include the slowest laps. The jitter in the x-axis is mainly used to separate stints for each driver. For example, if a driver stopped only once for new tires, then he had 2 stints during the race. Laps of the first stint will be aligned slightly more to the left side, while laps of the second stint will be aligned slightly more to the right.

Within each stint, the x-axis doesn’t represent anything. The points are jittered just to separate them and allow you to have a better view of each lap. The scales are NOT necessarily the same for the fastest 10 and slowest 10 charts. This was done just to allow the package to separate the dots better and allow you to see each individual lap. For a fully representative chart of the data take a look at the 3rd chart (All drivers plot).

Finally, the column on the right side shows the percentage of laps done by each team in a 0.250 seconds bin. If you see for example a lot of red toward the bottom of the column, then it means that most of those laps in that time range were done by Ferrari.
Scenario: A Ferrari driver had the fastest lap of the race. It was a 1:20.300. That lap falls within the 1:20.250 to 1:20.500 bin. In that case, you would expect to see a fully red row on the column. If another driver from another team—let’s say Red Bull—had done for example a lap with a time of 1:20.350, then then you would expect the row in that column to look half red and half blue.
