Note that all percentages below are to two decimal points.

The person who had the most drivers in the top 10 was TrapezeArtist, who managed to get them all.

crmalcolm and TCT had the fewest drivers in the top 10 - 7 each, which was still creditable.

The person who had the most drivers in their correct finishing positions was elianne, with a brilliant 5/10 (the entire podium - Verstappen, Pérez and Sainz - and Piastri in 8th and Stroll in 10th).

The person with the fewest was TCT - who didn't get any.

The most predicted top 10 driver who didn't finish in the top 10 was Ricciardo - with 9/14 (or 64.29% picking him).

The least predicted top 10 driver who did finish in the top 10 was Stroll - with 2 (14.29% - elianne and TrapezeArtist) picking him, both in his correct finishing position of 10th, incidentally.

Note

Please also note that following Round 1, I decided to make the number of points available for the correct number of pit stops 3 instead of 2. This was just an oversight on my part that it wasn't 3 in the first place, I think. It aligns better with other scores and think it is a worthy amount for this prediction, which requires a bit of thought put into the strategy.
