It’s been a while since I last posted unfortunately been very busy with work and house renovations so I’ve just not had the time to be doing this for the past couple months and it’s taken a bit of work to get caught back up. As it’s been a while below is a refresher of the rules, links to the data for every race since Italy and the standings for most overtakes and overtaken this season.
Rules
Only on track passes for position count (Positions gained due to cars pitting/ off track or spun/ major reliability issues do not count)
Likewise lapping and unlapping do not count as overtakes
Overtakes on Lap 1 do not count (See FAQ’s section for a detailed explanation)
Remember Overtaking data is just interesting data. It largely tells you how easy overtaking is in a given race not how entertaining the race is. Generally races with more overtaking are more entertaining but this is definitely not a rule. Baku 2016 had 80 overtakes and was a very dull race, Japan 2005 had 15 overtakes and was one of the best races ever.
