Which circuits do drivers spend the most time braking on? Mugello and its incredible top speeds? Le Mans, with its succession of acceleration-braking?

Nay! Termas de Rio Hondo, Jerez, Assen and Valencia come out on top, with 31% of the time spent braking (statistics only taking into account the front brake, since some, like Marc Marquez, raise this percentage to 80% by adding the two brakes).

Conversely, Losail is the circuit where you don't brake.

These data are provided by Brembo and it would be interesting to have the same kind of classification concerning the accelerator...
