Share of race time spent hunting for the next climb
Plotted against rank.
Analysis computed
Hover or focus a dot to name the pilot behind it.
Each dot is a pilot. ρ = 0.84 (clear pattern, n = 45). Less is expected to be better here, and it was: top ranks gather to the left. The curve is a trend fitted through the dots: left to right it runs from about rank 2 to about rank 44. 3 pilots have no value and are not plotted.
