All season, I wrote in-depth, data analysis articles for every #F1 race weekend They were supporter-only, but now they’re all free for everyone! I won’t be able to continue these articles (for now), so I’m pausing all memberships: no one will be billed anymore 👇 buymeacoffee.com/f1dataanalys...

This was the first #F1 season ever where two drivers won 3 races in a row but didn’t win the WDC! 💡 🟠PIA: Bahrain / Saudi Arabia / Miami (Season start) 🔵VER: Las Vegas / Qatar/ Abu Dhabi (Season end) 🟠NOR never won 3 straight, but delivered strong form all year Idea/Image: u/ZeroStormblessed

And Mercedes are running a special front wing system to replicate some of the 2026 changes with the new Pirelli tyres. All teams were allowed to come up with a system if they wanted - Ferrari also has one according to Pirelli #F1

Final version for the 2D Morton decode functions. Fairly happy with the structure in general. A 64-bit version should be easy enough to produce, by just using the 32-bit version twice and combining the results.

FP2: 🟠NOR’s higher downforce beat 🔵VER’s top-speed edge! He braked later and gained at every braking zone (T1, T6, T9), and in the fast corners (T1/T9) 🔵VER lifted before braking into T5, making his lap look slower (did the same at the lap end, dropping 10 km/h vs lap start) Popcorn ready 🍿#F1

Some random Morton Code tricks: If you've worked with Morton codes you've probably seen something like the this GLSL code to decode a Morton code, which end up at roughly 27 integer operations to generate the equivalent 2D position. Code transcribed from fgiesen.wordpress.com/2009/12/13/d...

Decided to go back to making Shadertoy fluid sims for for a bit. This time I improved my particle clustering cellular automaton SPH fluid sim to support multiple species particle merging and splitting. Also some fine tuning of the physics. shadertoy.com/view/tfyyWD

Interesting title! Not a big fan of the word “intelligence” in the context of AI, let alone “Fluid Intelligence”. But I will still give it a read. It’s a long one, only 41 pages. LOL 😂 arxiv.org/abs/2511.20455

Laps 11–18 changed everything: McLaren went from looking untouchable to not fast enough to win! ⏳ At the SC restart, ⚫️PIA gained 2.1s/lap on 🔵VER, and the race looked over. For short, though: VER was managing, and improved his pace by 1.4s/lap over the next 7 laps. PIA lost 0.7s Via JMP #YesJMPcan

RACE PACE #F1 #QatarGP In trying not to disappoint any driver, McL disappointed both: not splitting the strategy was shocking, and gifted VER the win! If VER takes the title, McL’s collapse will be a case study... PIA was 0.40s/lap quicker than VER: not enough to offset the extra stop

HAM’s poor top speed in Sprint Quali pushed him to switch rear-wing spec, costing a pit-lane start He went from slowest to fastest (despite using DRS for only six laps), yet felt the car was overall even worse! LEC, stuck in traffic, hit 339km/h RUS held a 5 km/h edge over PIA (neither used DRS)

SPRINT QUALI ANALYSIS 🏁 🟠PIA on pole with an excellent package: fastest in the slowest and fastest corners, plus good top speed ⚫️Mercedes: least drag... but lacked downforce 🟢ALO could stay full throttle for >70% of the lap! 🔵RBR and 🔴Ferrari had no strengths: lowest top speed, bad in corners…

With two races to go, Albon's and Williams' top speed record (369km/h, '24 Las Vegas) for this generation of cars will never be beaten! HAM and BEA ALMOST beat the 2025 record (365km/h by HAM in Monza). HAM was stuck in traffic for so long that he exceeded 360km/h on FIVE laps! #F1

I am looking to hire PhD students to join our Multiphase & Multiscale Flow Lab in Mechanical Engineering @univofmaryland.bsky.social Background in ME, Physics, ChemE, Civil (or related), interest in fluid mechanics/soft matter, and hands-on lab work are key. Please help spread the word!

McLaren spotted the excessive plank wear far too late! NOR lifted-and-coasted heavily in the last 4 laps, especially at Turn 10 (Fastest one → worst for wear), losing up to 52km/h! (~1s in one corner alone) Still, by Lap 46, the damage was already done PIA didn't lift at all Via JMP #YesJMPcan #F1

Throwback to last year, when the slipstream made Gasly's Alpine self-destruct!💥(Not his fault) ⚫️Lap 13 (Reference) 🟣Lap 14 (Failure) Strong tow from TSU, reaching 361km/h under DRS: the engine reached 12937rpm in 8th gear, then exploded! (Speed dropping, no power afterwards) Via JMP #YesJMPcan

I estimated how much each car’s Power/Drag ratio improved with DRS: NOR’s gain was just ONE THIRD of RBR’s and HAM’s!!! 🔵RBR: 19.6% VER vs 19.9% TSU 🔴Ferrari: 11.3% LEC vs 20.1% HAM 🟢Mercedes: RUS 10.2% vs ANT 14.4% 🟠McL: NOR 6.7% vs PIA 17.6% ❌Less effective DRS ❌ERS deployment dropped with DRS

🔴Ferrari's wing (Monza-spec) is the least loaded among top teams: the front surface will be minimal once DRS opens! Enough downforce to heat the rears? 🟠McL's V-shaped lower plane preserves some downforce ⚫️Mercedes: much deeper lower plane Ferrari and Sauber might beat ALB’s 369km/h! (Last year)

Radical Pie has a gazillion typesetting parameters that you can fine-tune to your heart's content. Here's all the stuff you can tweak for parentheses, brackets, braces, etc.

The fact that we had different strategies does not change this: compounds weren’t equal at all performance-wise! 🟡 Medium > 🔴 Soft >> ⚪️ Hard Hards were dropped after poor pace, while Softs ran only as the mandatory second compound: Mediums had better degradation AND pace! #F1

Curious if there's been a breakthrough in hardware that lets sensors work at higher speeds in autonomous vehicles. Sure, it's great if they can see further, but what about nearby vehicles on highways? Can these systems react quickly enough to avoid severe consequences of high speed traveling?

🏁 RACE PACE #BrazilGP #F1 🔵VER quickest on average despite traffic! (‘Aided’ by the puncture-forced extra tyre set) 🟠McL next quickest, followed by 🟢Mercedes - and ⚪️Haas! (Austin upgrades clearly worked) 🔴Ferrari’s pace impossible to gauge after a disastrous weekend

🚀 With a fresh power unit, Verstappen hit the highest top speed (346 km/h, same as low-drag Sauber) in his stunning charge from pit lane to the podium, despite an early puncture! Reminiscent of Hamilton’s 2017/2021 Brazil comebacks 🏁 Fastest race pace too, even in traffic; full analysis tomorrow!

🟠Piastri’s race was ruined by traffic: was P9 after a poor quali and bad start, and only ran in free air during parts of the last stint! In my view, a one-stopper would have helped, letting him pass those ahead (all on two stops) as they pitted Can PIA reverse course? Can VER recover? 👀

I am excited to announce the release of Radical Pie, version 1.0! This is the professional equation typesetting application that I've been working on for the last year. See the website for details. radicalpie.com

MEXICO’S MOST COMPREHENSIVE PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS ⛽️Fuel-corrected laptimes vs 🛞tyre age Mediums or softs, fresh or worn - it didn’t matter: NOR had a huge ~0.4s advantage all else being equal! Only exception: end of the soft stint, when VER and SAI were quickest! Via JMP #YesJMPcan

🟠NOR was quickest… despite using one less tyre set than most! 😳 🟠PIA lost 0.15s/lap despite pitting twice ⚪️BEA was 3rd fastest, but not quick enough vs 🔵VER /🔴 LEC to offset the extra stop Alpine slowest by far… no surprise! #F1

Norris’ quali advantage looks to be confirmed in the race as well: he was quickest, the only top driver to use softs along with his teammate! Still, not quickest overall: BEA’s stint on Mediums was even quicker! #MexicoGP #F1
