pitStops,"Stores pit stop events per driver and race, capturing the stop sequence number, lap, exact time of the stop, and its duration in seconds with a millisecond value for precision. Identifiers raceId and driverId link each record to a specific race and driver."
circuits,"This table catalogs Formula 1 circuits, including a unique ID, reference and full names, location and country, geographic coordinates (lat/lng), optional altitude, and a URL for more details. Each row represents a single circuit."
races,"The races table records each Formula 1 Grand Prix, uniquely identified by raceId, including its season (year), sequence (round), circuit (circuitId), name, race date and local start time, and a URL for more details. It serves as the event-level registry for races within each season."
results,"Stores per-driver results for each race, linking to races, drivers, constructors, and a status code, with details on grid and finishing positions, points, laps, and finish times (including precise milliseconds). It also records fastest-lap performance (lap, time, speed, rank) to capture in-race pace."
results_official,Stores per-driver results for each race as published in the official post-race bulletin by the race director. Contains the same columns as the results table but may include time penalties and position adjustments applied after the chequered flag.
results_verified,Stores per-driver results for each race after the technical compliance and stewards inquiry process. Contains the same columns as the results table but may reflect disqualifications or reinstatements following technical scrutineering.
constructorResults,"Stores each constructor’s result for a specific race, including a unique result ID, references to the race and constructor, the points awarded, and a textual outcome status. Use it to track and aggregate constructor performance and scoring by race."
seasons,"This table stores one row per Formula 1 season, uniquely identified by its year. It includes a URL linking to an overview or introduction page for that season."
status,"This lookup table lists all statuses in the Formula 1 database, mapping each unique statusId to its full status name for consistent use across related tables."
driverStandings,"Stores per-race driver standing records, keyed by driverStandingsId, linking each driver (driverId) and race (raceId) to the points earned, standing position (numeric and text), and recorded wins. Use this to track how a driver ranked and scored in each race."
drivers,"Stores one row per Formula 1 driver, with a unique driverId, reference name, race number, optional abbreviated code, full name (forename/surname), date of birth, nationality, and a profile URL. This table centralizes driver identities and basic biographical details."
lapTimes,"This table stores per-lap results for each driver in each race (via raceId and driverId), including the lap number, the driver’s position at that lap, and the lap time. Lap time is available both as a formatted string and as milliseconds for precise analysis."
constructors,"This table stores Formula 1 constructors (teams), including a unique ID and reference, official name, nationality, and a website link for detailed info. It also records each constructor’s total wins, with one row per constructor."
qualifying,"Stores each driver’s qualifying result per race, linking to the race, driver, and constructor, with car number, final qualifying position, and lap times for Q1–Q3. Later-session times may be null if the driver was eliminated earlier in the knockout qualifying."
constructorStandings,"Stores per-race constructor standings, linking each constructor (constructorId) to a race (raceId) with the points they scored, their standing position (numeric and text), and wins count. Each record is uniquely identified by constructorStandingsId."
