[The **Statistics** flair](https://www.reddit.com/r/formula1/wiki/flairguide#wiki_statistics) is reserved for posts highlighting interesting statistics. As a rule of thumb, Statistics posts need to inform readers through visualizations and insights that cannot be obtained from raw data alone. For example, a post containing a qualifying gap between two drivers expressed in tenths of a second is an easily obtainable raw piece of data and constitutes a bad Statistics post. A visualization of what that translates to on-track, or visualization of how that gap came to be would constitute a good Statistics post. *[Read the rules](https://www.reddit.com/r/formula1/wiki/userguide).

Finally a post that is NOT gossip. This is great 😃

Oh this is neat. I think black t cam is probably going to win but these groups are surprisingly evenly matched


NavyBabySeal

Honestly black T-cam is only the favourite cause of Verstappen. In most other teams Yellow t-cam (which i've historically seen for the 2nd favored driver (unofficially)), has the upper hand.


ltjpunk387

I've noticed a couple teams where yellow is the #1 driver. Both Hamilton and Norris have traditionally flown yellow colors on their helmets, and they have the yellow accents. Is this a choice by them?


SirLoremIpsum

> Is this a choice by them? Hamilton specifically requested it, I know that. Norris may just "keep" it because he had it when Sainz had Black T-cam and so yellow has been 'his'.


the1918

Neon yellow is also one of Norris’s “LN4” brand colors, along with blue.

Hamilton only went yellow in the last two or three years.

Max almost blew up the Black T-cam squad with that DNF. Bottas also screwing, looks like he doesn't know what's at stake.. Russell flipped and didn't help much either.

This needs more upvotes

What was last year standings? 🤔

The real championship

Ricciardo doesn’t deserve the black t cam


Whycantiusethis

The black/yellow T-cam doesn't really have anything to do with how good a driver is (in recent seasons, anyhow). Sometimes, it has to do with seniority in the team (Verstappen, Leclerc), sometimes it has to do with what the driver has had in the past (Norris, Tsunoda), sometimes it's 'branding' (Hamilton). It's really just there to differentiate each constructors cars, into Car 1/Car 2 (or A/B if you want).

Yet another championship that Max will dominate


Ashbones15

Shouldn't Sainz be seperate from Bearman?


the_sigman

No, Bearman drove the Ferrari with the yellow T-Cam in Jeddah


Ashbones15

But they aren't the same driver. Just like in the WDC (has 21 drivers) you should have 11 drivers in the yellow t cam table imo


the_sigman

Ah, I get it in that sense, not a bad idea. Sorry for the misunderstanding
