With Formula 1 back this week for the first race of the season in Bahrain, I've built a race timing #dataanalysis tool to reflect upon last year's opening round. A "gapper plot" shows the time delta for all drivers relative to a reference time or car, and is key for evaluating the race #strategy across all teams. During a race, teams analyse relative gaps with live updates to determine and predict ideal pitstop windows. Last year saw Verstappen lead Perez to the finish by 12s for Red Bull Racing & Red Bull Technology, with Alonso for Aston Martin F1 Team in third, a further 27s behind. How different will the result be this year? More #F1 race strategy analysis here: https://lnkd.in/efQcta48

The power of #feedback! Great clip from F1! Share it, act upon it and continously improve. Sometimes it takes courage to shine a light to things we are not doing perfectly, but would you rather let them stay broken or fix based on feedback and get better? #feedback #customerinsight

Feedback! The most important part of a development process! As industrial designers, solving problems is at the core of what we do. This takes repeated loops of building, testing, gaining feedback, uncovering insights and developing new features, products and experiences to test. We understand this itteration process deeply. But it’s not just designers that learn from feedback. We all should. It gives me immense pleasure and sense of pride to see my sister Emma Duch - head of hospitality at McLaren Racing standing alongside CEO Zak Brown, explaining how they use feedback from Medallia to improve their cars as well as their visitor and hospitality experiences. Truely inspirational. Well done Em and team! #mclarenracing #buildtestrepeat #productdevelopment #feedback #racing #Formula1 #F1
