Challenge #396: Analyze the Ultimate Motorsport - Formula 1

It took me a minute to recognize we wanted a difference between best conditions and rainy conditions, but looks like Driver 9 would be the one to consider!AR_396.png

My Solution

It was faster to use Cross Tab but I decided to stay with filters and join to received same header names.

However I am attaching second version as well :)

Used a slightly different method (Cross-Tab rather than filter and join) but ended up with the same result. Not sure how the delta showed the 'best' driver, however, rather  the most consistent.

I also thought that C-T worked more effectively than filter and join!

Solution in Alteryx, SQL and Python.

NOTE - Logic of finding the most suitable driver does not make sense though. Driver 1 was the fastest in Sunny as well as Rainy condition and his delta/spread between the fastest and slowest average is the second lowest right after Driver 9. In a real world, I would want to have Driver 1.

The output does not match with the expected value.
I checked the solution file but do not understand why it changes the lap value to "Float" type from "Double".
