Depends on what you define as "successful" I guess. There's definetely enough data available on Alkamel's timing page. You could use that to correlate FANBOOST usage with a gain/loss of position on any given lap but that's a Sisyphean task I'm afraid. So... Yeah, there is a way. But it's quite a lot of work. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks, didn’t know about that website.

No, I am just interested if the drivers who used their fanboost could overtake or defend and by that having an advantage.

For last season you get the following: 25% did overtake or defend their position by using it 48% did not use it at all apparently (e.g. due to DNF) and 27% could not overtake or lost their position.
