The 2013 Formula One season was dominated by the Vettel/ Red Bull-Renault package, which won 13 of the 19 races. Many reckon that Vettel is one of the great drivers. Some however argue that Vettel was fortunate in having the fastest car, the Red Bull-Renault. Just how good was Vettel compared with his peers? This publication compares grand prix and Formula One drivers, cars and packages in simple arithmetic terms.

The 2013 Formula One season was dominated by the Vettel/ Red Bull-Renault package, which won 13 of the 19 races. Many reckon that Vettel is one of the great drivers. Some however argue that Vettel was fortunate in having the fastest car, the Red Bull-Renault. Just how good was Vettel compared with his peers? This publication compares grand prix and Formula One drivers, cars and packages in simple arithmetic terms. My study found that all that matters in assessing competitiveness in grand prix racing is 'the gap'; that is, the time intervals between competitors. For the first time the driver has been separated from the car and each is expressed as separate performance elements that make up the performance package. Just how much current four-time champion Vettel contributes to the Red Bull-Renault's recent dominance is explained and quantified. My analysis starts from the first car race in 1894, from Paris to Rouen, and includes over 1,200 grand prix races. The Patrick O'Brien Grand Prix Rating System is divided into 17 volumes, one for each decade since racing's inception in 1894 (up till 2016) plus three further analytical volumes.

Autorenporträt
The Adventures of Kozmos Lovejoy, Exp. is a riveting story of adventure, enlightenment, love and personal discovery that wants to be told. Kozmos Lovejoy, Exp sets out to discover the human potential hidden in the American culture during the revolutionary spiritual renaissance of the 1960s and '70s. Kozmos learns at age nine to hitchhike so he doesn't have to walk up a steep hill to get home. Over the years, he discovers that he can go anywhere. He doesn't need a car, or money, or even a destination. He knows he is free. What follows is a tale of self-discovery that connects revelatory experiences in Puerto Vallarta, San Francisco, Santa Fe, Denver, Ohio, West Virginia, and finally in a Sufi camp near Chamonix, France. In addition to being an intimate look back to a great period of awakening consciousness, The Adventures of Kozmos Lovejoy, Exp. celebrates the greater journey of self-awareness. Patrick O'Brian blends his own experiences with his keen understanding of the period to create an epic adventure that will lift hearts, imaginations and dreams of what is possible everywhere.
