PB

PB (Personal Best) is the fastest time a driver has ever achieved on a specific track or course during their career.

Drivers constantly aim to improve their PBs during practice sessions, qualifying, and races. For example, a commentator might say, "Hamilton just set a new PB in sector two!" meaning he's just recorded his fastest-ever time in that section of the track.

PBs serve as personal benchmarks, allowing drivers to measure their improvement over time. Teams also analyze this data to identify areas where drivers can gain time. In some regions, especially the United States, you might hear "PR" (Personal Record) used instead of PB.
