#i don't actually like counting race wins because i'm FAR more about consistency metrics when evaluating seasons#but i had a moment this morning where i was like... hang on. pecco is on SIX wins this season?? six??#he's already matched valentino's tally for one of his seasons. he's outstripped one of marc's titles and matched another two#currently on 2/3 win rate. i know he isn't the biggest flyaway guy and i imagine he'd like to build up a buffer before then but#even if he loses this title it's definitely an impressive run#//#brr brr#if anyone says a WORD about joan then i will personally bite you. tread carefully#i don't love just doing the maths without sprint races because that's just not how anything works#like the sunday races wouldn't be the same if they hadn't had done the saturday races. you can't just separate that out so simply#BUT i do have a spreasheet for this just out of idle curiosity and unsurprisingly pecco leads a lot more comfortably on just sunday numbers#42 point lead#here's my mean stat: do you know how often valentino crashed out of the lead from 2001 to 2009? you want to know the total?#he did it ONCE. once! donington 2009 in the rain where he recovered to fifth. that's it!! his entire prime. nine seasons and it's ONCE#i'm not 100% certain but just looking at his results and mentally categorising them.... is his premier class career total two??#surely not... it's certainly very low though#pecco must exhaust him sometimes good lord#current tag
