Post position is changed after the draw.
The order on the spreadsheet I uploaded really doesn't have any relevance.
I adjust the contenders based on early thoughts for win contender. I start by organizing by AWD and LP...then start my elimination for the win using other data on the sheet. Then I move on to organizing 2nd and 3rd place finishers. I'm a derby Tri player, so I focus mostly on that.
Much of the information on this spreadsheet is new, so we will see how it plays out.
I do enjoy trends when it comes to the Derby.
Last night I went through the past 15 years, and saw 2nd place is filled mostly of P types (6 of last 15) or E types (4 of last 15).
11 of the last 15 place finishers were coming off top speed numbers. And 13 of the last 15 place finishers posted a 90+ LP figure.
For the 3rd slot...
8 of 15 3rd places finishers were E/P types or P types.
11 of 15 posted a 90+ LP figure.
What this means, who knows...its the Derby...anything can happen. I just find this obsession fun.
