BoP Lab / Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course
This track has been raced on 2 configurations (Scoring Sidebar, 2.40 mi; 16 Runoffs Scoring Sidebar, 2.26 mi). Laps on different configurations are not comparable, so only events on the 2.40 mile layout are shown; switch above to see the others.
2 laps are left out as timing errors (far too short to be a lap of this track). The rest of those sessions, sectors included, is used.

One row per driver and car (a driver who changed cars has a row for each). Each cell is that driver's best in that car across the selected events, with the session it was set in; the fastest in each column is purple, and a car whose best lap is more than 115% of the fastest in its class is greyed, marked ">" (with ">115%" beside the driver) and left out of the colour scale. Click a column to sort, a row to highlight it. Theoretical lap is the sum of the best sectors, whichever laps they came from, and never slower than the best lap (where a car's fastest laps were recorded without sector times, its best lap is used). The 115% mark is about the car's best lap only: a car whose best lap is within 115% of the fastest in its class is never marked. Greyed sectors with no theoretical lap mean the sector times on file do not add up to a believable lap. Letters refer to the events above; Q is qualifying, R a race.
Sectors are numbered in lap order from start/finish, whatever each event's timing called them; the loop names are SCCA timing's.
