Thanks BD I enjoyed reading that.   

I'm amazed they make reasonable predictions on a race strategy from surprisingly small amounts of data, e.g. 1mb per lap/sector times for competing cars.    Wonder though how many hundreds, or tens of thousands, of mbs it takes to run all the algorithms to get the best strategy?
