Against the front of the class, by track and class
| Track | Class | Sessions | Typical gap to class best | Closest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sebring International Raceway (3.74 mi) | FC | 21 | +6.073s (4.72%) | +1.569s (1.00%) |
| Indianapolis Motor Speedway (2.59 mi) | FC | 7 | +7.787s (7.99%) | +5.420s (5.49%) |
Gap is the driver's best lap in a session against the fastest lap in their class in that same session (zero is fastest in class), shown as time lost and as a share of the lap, so conditions cancel out and tracks can be compared. Typical is the median session.
