Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +18.51% off the PAX winner; Mark finishes around +10.18%, so about 8.3 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Mark is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 3.
  • Median gap went from +9.61% in the first half of these events to +11.51% in the second half.
  • Run 1 is where mistakes happen most: 45% of run 1s were coned or DNF.
  • 1 coned run was faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at SPK #1, would have been 0.056 s quicker clean.
