Race outcomes inevitably stand out most vividly in motorsport historical past books however qualifying properly stays key to constructing them in Method 1, with the 2024 season no completely different.

A glance again by the numbers from the marketing campaign simply gone reveals a number of fascinating statistics to notice for the driving pack – for those who did properly and others that struggled.

Inevitably, automobile efficiency performs an enormous function in qualifying outcomes given it is the principle probability every weekend (albeit with two periods for dash occasions) to see pure tempo, with no gasoline or engine mode caveats, though how a driver will get the perfect out of the difficult Pirelli rubber can add in a key additional issue too.

Watch: Rating Autosport’s Prime 50 Drivers of 2024 – 50 to 41

For all of those stats offered right here, we have solely checked out GP qualifying periods, slightly than the SQ1-SQ2-SQ3 dash periods.

Topping the listing are the drivers that made probably the most Q3 appearances all 12 months, which had been Crimson Bull’s Max Verstappen, McLaren pair Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, and Mercedes racer George Russell – with every making it by to the pole-setting qualifying phase 23 occasions.

To make a break up, Q2 appearances grow to be related and right here Verstappen comes up on prime as his solely non-Q3 consequence from each 2024 GP qualifying session was when he was knocked out in Q2 on the Brazilian race.

For Norris, Piastri and Russell, all of them had a single Q1 exit that subsequently drops them behind the world champion – for Norris in Baku, Piastri in Mexico and Russell in Hungary – and so they make up the one drivers by no means to be knocked out in Q2 in all 2024 GP qualifying periods.

Becoming a member of Verstappen in making no Q1 exits this 12 months had been Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz – with each parts of the Ferrari pair being knocked out thrice in Q2 periods.

Just one full-time driver in 2024 by no means had a single Q3 expertise, which was Sauber’s Zhou Guanyu, though dropped Williams driver Logan Sargeant and common substitute Oliver Bearman didn’t both of their 17 and three entries this 12 months respectively.

The drivers that missed Q3 probably the most from the highest 4 groups had been Sergio Perez (9 absences break up into three Q2 outcomes and 6 in Q1) and Lewis Hamilton (six from two in Q2 and 4 in Q1).

Learn Additionally:

Two drivers made it by to Q3 simply as soon as – extra part-timers in Liam Lawson and Franco Colapinto (in Brazil and in Baku respectively after they turned out for RB and Williams) – whereas the opposite Sauber driver, Valtteri Bottas, solely bought by to the ultimate phase on two events to focus on how poor the C44 was general.

The drivers with probably the most Q2 appearances in 2024 had been Aston Martin’s Lance Stroll and now former Haas racer Kevin Magnussen (12 every), with Williams driver Alex Albon and (for a lot of the season) Alpine pair Pierre Gasly and Esteban Ocon all on 10 every.

Nearly inevitably given his earlier point out, Zhou had probably the most 2024 Q1 exits, though Bottas was subsequent up on 14.
