The entire NASCAR season is roughly the distance from Daytona to Phoenix and back 3 times. If each race were based entirely on median lap speed data, and combined into 1 giant race this is roughly where the cars would've finished on the road

- Had the entire 267 laps at Miami gone green and the final positions were based on speed alone (Median Lap) Kyle Larson would've finished approximately 2.5 miles ahead of 2nd place
- For those saying Bubba Wallace intentionally wrecked Kyle Larson. Data shows that Larson hit the brakes right before contact with Wallace. The previous lap Larson didn't use brake there. Blue is current lap, yellow is previous
- Had the entire 500 laps at Martinsville gone green, the cars could run laps without interference from each other, and Ross Chastain rode the T 3/4 wall for all the laps, this is approximately where they would've finished on track per median lap.

- Had the final 50 laps in the Cup race at Bristol been based on 4th quarter median lap speed data alone, this is roughly where the top 12 would've finished on track I don't know how anyone is expected to pass when they are all going the SAME SPEED
00:00- Ross Chastain's final lap was 1.667 seconds faster than Christopher Bell's, which equates to roughly 39 Martinsville hot dogs.
- This is a disaster. The key partner system is really culprit of all it. How do we get it back to everyone racing for themselves?
- Had the ENTIRE 95 laps @COTA been based on Median Lap Speed Data, this is roughly where the fastest 20 cars would've finished on track 📈More Analysis Below!!
- The CW team has done phenomenal tonight!! Commentary A++ Camera work A+ Graphics A Thank you @pkligerman and @jamiemcmurray. Very insightful, honest, and exciting commentary. Would love to see this team doing Sundays. Would be great for the sport
- Had the ENTIRE 200 laps @BGSRacing been based on Median Lap Speed Data, this is roughly where the fastest 4 cars would've finished on track
- A little Monopolistic to change rules mid season to benefit your court case instead of just playing by the rules you already set no?This is an interesting rule book update just now. NASCAR has a new policy where they can limit the number of entries to 40. Then another new rule where the top Open cars in owner points would get those spots. This would prevent 23XI or Front Row from missing a race this season if
- Had the ENTIRE 90 laps at Watkins Glen been based on if each driver achieved the result of their Optimal Lap Model, this is approximately where the fastest cars would've finished on track *Shane's not even trying and it's messing up the model
