1. The reason for the reduction in distance covered is because the FIA
no longer count Friday practice as part of the event for engines.
Teams now use different engines on Friday and swap to the "race"
engines for Saturday/Sunday.

Subject: Delayed Overtaking Statistics #14 - Spa-Francorchamps
Introduction for New Readers
============================
2007 is the tenth season that I have posted these amateur overtaking
analyses. My intention was to allow easier comparisons between Grands
Prix, seasons, circuits, drivers, etc.
In order to make any meaningful and/or useful observations it is essential
to produce the stats in as consistent a way as possible. To do this I have
devised several "rules" that I try to follow for each event. Please note
before posting to complain that I missed an obvious passing manoeuvre that
it has probably been excluded because of one of my "rules". The rules are
outlined in the "Disclaimer" below - please read it.
This analysis was mainly derived from the official FIA lap chart, which is
usually available from www.fia.com, http://forix.autosport.com or
www.autosport.com/f1/ on race day or the following day. The original charts
remain copyright of the FIA.
Other excellent Formula One websites are available. This analysis is
completely and totally unofficial.
Disclaimer
==========
For the purposes of this analysis, I only count what I will term "genuine"
passing manoeuvres, which means that I always exclude:
a) any place changes made during pit stops
b) all lapping or unlapping manoeuvres
c) any place changes made during the first lap
Hopefully, a) & b) are obvious. c) is because although lap one is often the
best opportunity to make up places, it is also not typical of the rest of
the race, and so, for the purpose of comparing races with other races and
seasons with other seasons, it is simpler to exclude lap one completely. I
do summarise the changes on lap one later in the post.
For the purposes of this analysis a "pit stop" encompasses the slowing down
lap and the out lap, since any passes during those laps MIGHT be due to the
driver slowing down or speeding up.
Passes are not counted in these stats UNLESS the gained position is held
until the start/finish line is next crossed and so gets recorded onto the
lap chart. I try to ignore anything that isn't recorded in the lap chart,
even if it was seen on TV.
These are the passes I read for the 2007 Belgian GP:
Lap Place Passer (Passed)
==================================================
2 12 Kubica (Button)
2 14 Sutil (Liuzzi)
3 6 Webber (Kovalainen)
3 11 Kubica (Trulli)
3 10 Kubica (Coulthard)
3 13 Sutil (Button)
3 16 Vettel (Barrichello)
4 7 Kubica (Kovalainen)
4 17 Sato (Barrichello)
5 9 Kubica (Schumacher)
5 12 Sutil (Trulli)
11 8 Kubica (Kovalainen)
11 19 Wurz (Davidson)
23 19 Yamamoto (Wurz)
31 12 Sato (Button)
That's 15 passes in total, compared to 28 at the last Belgian GP (2005).
Most: 6 by Kubica
The Last 10 Seasons
===================
For reasons of space I have removed the data for 1997 from this table. In
1997 there were 318 passes in 16 races, a race average of 20.

who frequently starts from pole position has very little chance to gain
places while one who usually starts at the back of the grid has a good
chance of gaining places.

It's not unusual for me to make an occasional mistake or to omit something in
the above. I do, of course, take full responsibility for any errors. I would
be grateful to anyone for pointing them out, and will incorporate any
corrections in later posts.
