JDF1 "real time" performance Malaysia.



Well guys, my first performance figues are ready to be tested. I've tried them out a few times in different circuits and this is as close as the real thing. Be aware that the game does choose randomly but generally it represents where each driver and team should be upto the Malaysian Grand Prix. I will be updating the performance as much as possible, so stay tuned and enjoy!

A special greeting to "pimpones1", whose support I apreciate, and one of the gifted people who make GP4 the best simulation game out there.

All you need to do is copy the values in the game using GP4 Master or similar.

JDF1 Qually Times Bahrain...


Red Bull: Continued where they left off... on top. Vettel has built a clear gap already but Webber should keep close.

Ferrari: Back on track. Alonso has a slight lead but Massa will give him a hard time.

Mercedes: Not a bad start. Rosberg has shown the way for Schumy, but for how long?

McLaren: A few tenths off. Hamilton welcomes Champ to his home.

Force India: The best of the rest. Advantage Sutil, again.

Renault: Quicker than most thought! Kubica shouldn't worry about rookie Petrov, yet.

Williams: Stuck for a moment. Barrichello, paired with newcomer Hulkenberg, should be able to focus on developing the car and not outpace his teammate.

Sauber: Not as quick as many thought. This battle will be close between De La Rosa & Kobayashi.

Toro Rosso: The "B team" or "C team"? Alguersuari has closed the gap to Buemi, but he's still behind.

Lotus: The top "new team". Kovalainen thought Hamilton was fast? Master qualifier Trulli has done it once more.

Virgin: Ah ah ah ah staying alive... Di Grassi might have given Glock a good fight in GP2, but this is F1 my boy! He'll need time to adapt.

Hispania: They made it, which is more than I can say for USF1. Senna practiced while Chandhok watched... 1+1 eaquals?

Virgin: Adding km to improve

Glock did outpace Di Grassi but unfortunately neither registered a fast enough time. We should see a difference in Oz.

HRT: Should be proud they're racing.


Unfortunately Senna couldn't make it into the %107 limit while Chandhok crashed out at the start of the race. Better luck in Melbourne.

Welcome FRIENDS!

I'd like to start by saluting all the 650,000,000 fans around the world who follow Formula One. My wish is to bring us even closer to the pinnacle of motor sport.

The statistics I have calculated myself, were taken from each Grand Prix weekend and may give F1 enthusiasts and authorities a unique system to evaluate and compare F1 teams and drivers during the entire season.

Of course, many have their opinion. All I hope to do is offer an interesting perspective that may solve the dispute of
"which team or driver was quicker?"

Any comments are welcomed. Just click on the images to get a better view.

HRT Cosworth grid car for GP4!

JDF1 Qually Times Bahrain...


Click on the images...


Red Bull: It's early, the times should change!

Webber finished ahead of Vettel last year! Somehow, Vettel has built a surprising gap of 0.435" ahead of Webber. However this is the first G.P. and I'm sure it'll be much closer during the year.

Ferrari: What an amazing battle!

In spite of Massa out qualifying Alonso in Q3. Two-time world Champ put in a faster time in Q2 and has a 0.070" lead in this tight match! This one will be nice to follow over the season...

Mercedes: 7 time Champ is in for a ride!

After three years of retirement it looks like Schumy, 0.423" behind, will need some races to get up to speed with GP2 Champ Rosberg.

McLaren Mercedes: 2008 Champ better than 2009.

Hamilton has the upper hand after Bahrain. Button is trailing 0.461" trying to adapt to Hamilton's car.

Force India Mercedes: Sutil over Liuzzi.

Sutil has started the season on the right foot, putting a time 0.632" quicker than Italian teammate.

Renault: Petrov needs time.

During practice Petrov made some good lap times, but when it was time to push, Kubica showed how well this track suits him, registering a time 1.204" faster.

Sunday, March 14, 2010

Williams Cosworth: Age before beauty.

No surprises here. Newbie Hulkenberg has performed well in qually and lapped 0.527" slower than Barrichello. I'm sure GP2 Champ has more to show, especially in Europe.

GP4 Melbourne official F1 loading screen!!!

Instructions found futher below with Bahrain. Enjoy.

Sauber Ferrari: The closest fight.

Just 0.033" separate the two! Should be really interesting to see who'll be on top. Who's your money on? De la Rosa for the moment...

Toro Rosso Ferrari: Buemi faster again.

Last year late comer Alguersuari had trouble keeping pace with Buemi. What's his excuse this year? Buemi leads by 0.882".

Lotus Cosworth: Trulli about a half a second quicker.

Kovalainen will have his hands full just trying to qualify ahead of his teammate. He starts the season 0.461" behind Trulli.

Virgin Cosworth: Glock almost pulled a second away!

Dispite having been 3.5 seconds from Qually 2, Glock outpaced Di Grassi by 0.859". Di Grassi is the rookie here, so we need to give him some time to narrow the gap.

HRT Cosworth: Senna over 1.5 seconds faster!

Although, both drivers were over the %107 limit, Senna had the upper hand and lead teammate by 1.664 seconds, as Chandhook had his shakedown during qualifying !!! Hopefully in Melbourne they'll be within the limit.

JDF1 2010 Update. Down to 13 teams or less ???


JDF1 Drivers' qually times


Many have their opinion on who is the best…

My stats display clearly who has performed better.

We all know that Jenson Button has become the 09’ World Champion and Sebastian Vettel has won the DHL fastest lap award! There’s no doubt they deserve this recognition and I personally congratulate them for their teamwork. Job very well done guys !!!

However, if you consider qualifying times, Vettel wasn’t actually the fastest driver. I believe that a racer’s speed should be evaluated constantly in every race, not only where they shined. This is just like the championship where points are rewarded in every race.


As you can see by clicking on the spreadsheet, that Rubens Barrichello has performed better in qualifying than anyone else!

This is the second time he has done this! In 2003 he out-qualified none other than Michael Schumacher!

I'm not saying that Rubens deserves the Championship or the DHL Award more than Button or Vettel. You need more than speed for that.

However if I were you, I'd listen to a very wise man in F1...

Sir Frank Williams...

Most, if not all, people do...





JDF1 Teams' qually times.


JDF1 Drivers' fastest laps.


Button shows why he's the fastest one during every Grand Prix... Consistancy.


JDF1 Teams' fastest laps.


JDF1 Drivers points total.


I’ve added more detail to FIA’s points system to include the top 10 finishers. This practically includes ALL the drivers in the championship. For example Massa & Kovalainen tied at 22 points in 09’ and many tied with no points. My point system unties and classifies them in the final standings.
I’ve also respected FIA’s difference in each final position, for example, 1st = 10pts, which is worth the same as two Fourth places (5pts. + 5pts.)

I hope this has been understood and well received by most of you. Any constructive criticism that would help this site be more informative is welcomed. LET THE 2010 SESON BEGIN !!!
