I have been toying around with F1 data and python plots, and got some average gap graphics in gif form, starting at Bahrain and up to Italy.

They are gifs, so check your wi-fi upon entering because there are many on each page, obviously.

Would have posted a few examples here, but apparently Lemmy is not keen on it. Hope imgur's servers do not crap out on me.

Repeated colors aren't really a problem, in fact the opposite! You want to quickly be able to identify the drivers and the teams and easily scan the graphs.

The team gaps do us the teams' colours, with a bit of an edit for better brightness. Alpine is pink because we have too many blues already.

But my non-designer brain wants more pretty colours in the drivers' one. I might re-run them with team colours and see what happens. Thank you very much for all the feedback so far, it is much appreciated!

The only thing you want to think about in data is ease of readability. If, for example, every driver's bar was their team's color in the graphs you could instantly and easily see and compare a drivers gap to both drivers in another team.
