I wish it was totally apples to apples. With that new step-up, the track is a little different.
We are not comparing the tracks… We are comparing the difference in lap times the same day on the same track on 2 different seasons… You can't compare 2013 and 2014 lap times but you can compare 450 vs 250 in 2013 and in 2014. The numbers in red is what matters

Gotcha. Glossed right over the red column at first. So from the data it would seem RV is a bad mothereffer, J-Mart too! He was only off Dunge's best time by lil more than a half sec. He might be making the races boring but damn what an emergence! Can't wait to see what he can do with each coming round.
Would be interesting to see the lap # of the fastest lap. (if Martin clicked that in lap 1-3 in the first moto, then it's nothing special. If he did it in lap 10, it would be)
So Roczen would have bean Martin by 33 seconds in the first moto, and 27 seconds in the second moto. That's about what I would expect between the 250 and 450 class.
I don't want to be a party pooper here but you can't really draw some conclusions out of this. There are too few samples in order to say that the 250 in 2014 are much closer to the 450 than in 2013. I would also chose average lap times instead of best times (unless you only want to know the sheer speed over 1 lap). Maybe after six rounds and then do the analysis, it could be representative test

Hate to poop on your party pooping, but there wasn't actually any data analysis done. It was simply the presentation of data. What you do with the data is up to you, which is when it matters what the sample size, etc. is.
Thanks for puttin the info up DV, it's pretty cool to see this type of stuff.
I definitely don' t have the time nor desire to crunch the numbers but Klootzak is right, you'd need average or at least fastest and standard deviation to really review them...
Or you could just say that clearly J-Mart is ripping. Don't need a stop watch for that!
I think the point is that the 250f bikes and riders are getting faster, if you put Jeremy Martin and his rocket bike on the 450 gate, he would go top 10 easy. When the track gets rougher the 250s seem to be very competitive with the big bikes .
The advances they are making with 250 power is impressive, but as we have seen with the PC factory Kawi, they can be a time bomb also. Only two rounds in, but it looks as if Yamaha has made a horsepower breakthrough with those bikes . If they could figure out how to turbocharge the 250 to keep up with the 450 on the start, that would open the door to a lot of possibilities.
250f technology seems to be cutting adage right now, next thing is to keep them from blowing up...

On paper Martin would be top 10 easy when placed with the 450s, but in reality he would start dead last and get outdragged in every corner by the 450s, making it very hard to pass. Herlings had exactly this problem last year when the MX1&MX2 class got combined in some GP's.
Wise analysis, cheers. First conclusion, the 250 this year is REALLY fast.
For party crashers it is true that we can always continously add data (average/more years/etc), even a formula to estimate how slower the track gets from 1 moto to another, I think that could prove even better DV's point. Indeed the 250 are coming after the 450 so the track is about 1 second slower (the 250 & 450 lost about 2 seconds between their motos). Impressive !

DV, I would piggyback on your stats and talk about how the track is a lot rougher for the 250f's, so their true times on an equal conditioned track are probably a lot closer.
Maybe, but then you look at Cairoli grabbing tons of holeshots on a bike that is 100cc down...
Hell yes. Dude rips the holeshot almost every time I'm watching, he amazing. And people say the "lack of power" from the Honda's are holding back their factory rider's. Tony doesnt seem to have any issues

A better comparison would be if we look at Dungey as a constant, since he raced this year and last.

The only thing I can say clearly is that most vitards probably have no idea what standard deviation is.
Stats don't lie.

you can draw many things from data/stats
but
imo
most mean diddly
RD9 - France - Moto1 - Herlings 1:50.356 / Desalle 1:49.593 - MXGP 0.763 seconds faster
RD9 - France - Moto2 - Herlings 1:48.022 / Desalle 1:49.084 - MXGP 1.062 seconds slower
RD8 - Great Britain - Moto1 - Herlings 1:54.841 / Cairoli 1:55.830 - MXGP 0.989 seconds slower
RD8 - Great Britain - Moto2 - Herlings 1:55.179 / Cairoli 1:55.139 - MXGP 0.040 seconds faster
And for fun... on his home track.
RD6 - The Netherlands - Moto1 - Herlings 1:52.847 / Paulin 1:55.356 - MXGP 2.509 seconds slower

Not that there are every really any constants in motocross. (Also: Dungey seemed to have gone backwards in SX from 13 to 14. Is it the same for MX?)
