Pro Mazda Tsukuba Hot Lap Analysis

Let’s look at the telemetry from a hot lap around Tsukuba Circuit in the Pro Mazda.

Analysis

The speed chart analysis indicates that driver B enters corners with less speed than driver A, likely due to not carrying enough momentum from the previous corner. This affects the entire cornering phase, suggesting that driver B should work on maintaining higher exit speeds for a better entry into subsequent turns. Additionally, driver B's minimum speed occurs later than driver A's, pointing to a delayed throttle application and resulting in a slower exit. To improve lap times, driver B should aim for an earlier and smoother transition back to throttle for quicker acceleration out of corners.

In terms of braking, driver A brakes later and more aggressively than driver B, potentially leading to higher entry speeds but also increasing the risk of errors. Driver B brakes earlier and more gently, allowing for smoother deceleration and possibly better car control through the corner. Driver A could benefit from adopting a similar approach to braking for improved cornering.

Regarding throttle control, driver A is more gradual in applying throttle compared to the sharp increase by driver B. This suggests caution or wheelspin issues for driver A, while driver B's aggressive acceleration could be advantageous if controlled well. Driver B starts applying throttle earlier than driver A, indicating faster corner carrying speed and transition to acceleration. For better exit speeds and faster laps, driver A should focus on smoother and earlier throttle inputs to minimise wheelspin and maximise traction.
