The data below is only for Formula 1 Grand Prixs that has a price increase between 2023 and 2024. Grand Prixs that F1Destinations did not have data on for 2024, and Grand Prixs that had a decrease in ticket price were excluded.
Grand Prixs that did not have a change in price were, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.
Grand Prixs that had a decrease in ticket price were, Emiglia-Romagna (Imola) and Italy (Monza).
The Chinese Grand Prix was excluded because it did not take place in 2023 so there is no difference to record.

Driver Statistics
Each driver is on a different page, sorted from 1st in the World Driver’s Champion to 22nd in the World Driver’s Championship. shows different statistics for different drivers and teams from the 2023 Formula 1 season. The first graphic on the page is how many points the driver had after each race weekend, how many points each driver gained per race, and how they placed in each race. If a driver did not particpate in a race weekend, they do not have a plot on the graphic, and if the driver did not finish, or were disqualified from the race, that is indicated by place 0 on the graphic. This graphic can be used to se which drivers were most consistent in race finishes, which drivers scored the most points, and which drivers had the best season. By looking at the graphic, you can see that Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton are the only drivers who finished every single race in the 2023 season in the points.

The second graphic shows how many points each team gained during each race weekend. These graphics can show which teams gained the most points for the World Constructors Championship in the 2023 season, and which teams had the most consistent drivers. By looking at these graphics, you can see that Red Bull and Mercedes are the only two teams to have gained points during every race.
