Reliability after Canada

Renault had a bad day, McLaren and Jordan got two cars in the finish line.
Code:
Ferrari 100% 0
Toyota   94% 1
Williams 88% 2
Sauber   88% 2
Renault  88% 2
Jaguar   75% 4
BAR      75% 4
Minardi  63% 6
McLaren  56% 7
Jordan   56% 7
---------------
General  78% 35
Renault has lost its perfect status and now Toyota is the second king of the hill.

Everyone is doing a good job this year, except Minardi, McLaren and Jordan, but, of course, Minardi and Jordan have last year's engines, thus all the finger point to Mac.

Disqualifys by rules are not counted as unreliability, then Williams and Toyota have had a perfect record this round.

Firstly, this belongs in the F1 forum, not the bikes.

Secondly, to have a reliable car, you ahve to build one that can complete the race distance legitimately and be in the hunt for poitns after 190-odd miles, so the Toyotas and Williams have to count as unreliability.

Thirdly, surely the reliability stats don't look qutie so bad for Mclaren, because they're having to develop new machinery, rather than using tried-and-trusted stuff?

Nice set of stats all the same.

Tried and trusted in a season where they didn't have to run one engine all weekend long?

I thought Jordan were running the same engine as Jaguar and only Minardi on are last years engine?

Boots:

No, Will and Toy DNQs definitively don't have to count as unreliability problems. As maximum, it could be considered as race not done, but in this case I don't think so. The cars were reliable, although they were illegal, I don't want to mix different things.

Another thing is the question when a driver has an incident and leave the race in the first lap or so. Even in this case, again it doesn't count as unreliable, but as race not done, and then the denominator to calculate percentages must be changed. But I don't make currently that kind of correction.

About Mac, yes, they are playing with new parts, but... precisely it shows how bad they have done when they have to do it in the middle of the season
