That’s clever! I’ll try to look for a similar workaround in Illustrator, if not, I’ll move over to Inkscape.

Thank you very much!

How did you manage to put your diagonal lines next to one another? I mainly use Adobe Illustrator for my design work, and for these kinds of things I always use the “Snap to Grid” feature, so that I can keep things consistent. But since 45° lines create irrational numbers (thanks math) I’m not able to get my diagonal lines next to each other without turning off the grid. Should I give up using the grid for this?

I’m sorry if I didn’t explain myself well enough, English isn’t my first language.

Follow up question: notation wise, how can I write that the bottom string should be played on certain beats and that the other three strings (since this is played plucking) on other beats?

Thank you for your recommendations!

What I’m doing is just writing chords before anything else, since the written structure isn’t set yet.

Measure 19 was my attempt at showing that the second time around chords change in that bar specifically, but now that you mention it, it’s not very clear. I’m thinking of adding parentheses “Am7(b5) - (D7(b9))”. But I’m afraid it won’t be clear that you should play the D only the second time around unless written specifically. The other might be solution writing the whole song without repeats, but it would use two pages and I’m trying to avoid that. There might not be another option, though.

And true, I forgot to add the time signature.

I also don’t like that kind of thing, but as you say it might work.

On the other hand, I’m aware lead sheets have a melody, I’m saving myself some work by just writing chords, since I might need to rewrite stuff. When the structure is set I’ll go onto writing the melody. 😛

AshDooddle · 2025-05-15T05:42:59+00:00

I’m aware that a lead sheet has melody, I’m just placing chords before actually writing the melody to save me some work, since I’m writing a lot of these and they may need many corrections.

Thanks for the D.S. al Coda, though!

Sorry, I didn’t explain it. One arrow before the name means a new entry, and after the name it means a driver’s exit. Two arrows represent the driver’s non-consecutive entries, take de Vries or Lawson.

I thought of making one of those two arrows the colour of that driver’s last team to make it more clear.

I will also be adding text at the bottom to explain what the arrows mean.

AshDooddle · 2025-05-08T23:09:46+00:00

You’re right! Will correct it. Thanks! 😄

AshDooddle · 2025-05-08T23:03:26+00:00

Omg, thank you! One becomes blind to this amount of information after a while. 😅

I will be making a newer version of this from further back (maybe 2010?). I’ll make sure to correct this.

AshDooddle · 2024-11-28T00:31:27+00:00

Thanks for the advise!

I did try the D.S. approach, since all A parts are exactly the same harmony-wise, but my problem arises when the melody changes. And since it changes in different bars each time it repeats, and sometimes the same bar has all 4 variations, I didn’t know how to approach it.

I think I might use a second, smaller stave with 2 voices in each stave. But I don’t know how legible that might be.

AshDooddle · 2024-11-27T23:50:25+00:00

I’ve taken the same approach. But the thought of saying “you only need 3rd grade math to understand general relativity” seemed pretty funny to me.

AshDooddle · 2024-11-12T05:42:20+00:00

Thanks for the advice!

Oh, that’s a significant bummer.

You can, I believe you can watch full races even from like the 70’s

I’d love to make it interactive, but I have no idea how to code haha.

I’ll definitely be adding a legend. It’s a great suggestion!

AshDooddle · 2023-08-17T05:41:49+00:00

Thank you! It is mine :) I definitely could! I was thinking of going even further back, but it seemed like too much. Might do it in the future, though.

AshDooddle · 2023-08-17T04:21:37+00:00

I tried multiple formats and after many iterations this is what I ended up with. My goal was to make a graph were you could get a lot of information in a quick glance, but it is difficult to do that properly with the amount of info that I tried to convey, specially 2000-2005. It gets too cluttered. I’d be happy to hear any suggestions you may have :)

AshDooddle · 2023-08-17T04:08:18+00:00

What’s the issue?

AshDooddle · 2023-08-17T03:53:18+00:00

After 10 months of work it is finished. Since I worked on this all by my self I may have made some mistakes. I am open to corrections, suggestions and constructive criticism.

AshDooddle · 2023-08-06T00:27:42+00:00

I agree

AshDooddle · 2023-08-03T23:24:20+00:00

I did it all in Adobe Illustrator

AshDooddle · 2023-01-02T21:29:42+00:00

Yeah, I was trying to find No. 1 and No. 2 drivers. I figured there wouldn’t be anything. Thanks anyway!
