330 kph. The median top speed recorded by Haas in the race, 4ph faster than Racing Bulls in 2nd. Ferrari continues to reside in the bottom half on top speeds. Interesting to see McLaren 3rd-last despite recording the 2nd-best race pace.

Oscar Piastri spent an average of 12.0s in the Suzuka Esses, best in the race. It was one of the few places where he could make up time on Antonelli, who was 2-tenths off.
