LeMans24

A schema with 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race results including all races, drivers, teams and cars to be used for statistics.

How to use

In order to use the project you need to do either of the following:

Option 1 - Using MySQL Workbench:

  1. Create database structure:
  • Open lemans24.mwb in MySQL Workbench;
  • From the Database menu choose Forward Engineer;
  • Follow the wizard and generate the database on your MySQL instance.

Note: You could also use Forward Engineer SQL CREATE Script to generate SQL script.

  1. Import data:
  • In MySQL Workbench's Navigator select table circuits;
  • Right click and select Table Data Import Wizard;
  • Select file db/data/circuits.csv and click Next;
  • You have to adjust column names and skip colum id;
  • Then, repeat the same for files db/data/races.csv and db/data/results_in.csv for the respective tables;
  • Finally, execute script db/data/tyres.sql.
  1. Load data:
  • To get structured data populated in the database tables execute procedure process_results with call process_results();.

Remark: For faster performance disable autocommit for the execution of the procedure.

Option 2 - Using pre-generated SQL scripts:

  1. Get the schema creation script lemans24.sql;
  2. Get the data dump lemans24-data.sql;
  3. Import the two scripts in the same order with either mysql command-line client (see Executing SQL Statements from a Text File) or with MySQL Shell.

Model

The database model is maintained with the help of MySQL Workbench and has the following objectives:

  • elimination of data redundancy;
  • data access (through primary and foreign key, indexes);
  • ensuring data integrity and accuracy.

The model is in file lemans24.mwb and is graphically represented here below.

LeMans24 Model

Tables

  • car_numbers - Car numbers per race;
  • car_tyres - Tyres per car;
  • cars - Cars register;
  • circuits - Circuits register (to track changes in Circuit de la Sarthe length and configuration);
  • driver_results - Connects drivers to results;
  • drivers - Drivers register;
  • races - Races register (including cancelled);
  • results - Results register;
  • results_in - Results input buffer;
  • team_results - Connects teams to results;
  • teams - Teams register;
  • tyres - Tyre brands.

Triggers

  • races_calc_laps_bi - Calculates laps from distance and circuit length;
  • races_calc_laps_bu - Calculates laps from distance and circuit length;
  • results_checks_bi - Checks position values;
  • results_checks_bu - Checks position values;
  • results_in_checks_bi - Checks input data;
  • results_in_checks_bu - Checks input data.

Views

  • AllDriversResults - List of all drivers with active years and achievements;
  • AllWomenTeams - List all women teams with their results;
  • Circuits - List circuits length and changes per years;
  • DriversWithNickname - List of drivers having a nickname;
  • FemaleDrivers - List all female drivers with active years and achievements;
  • FemaleDriversByCntry - Female drivers by country;
  • MostPodiumsByDriver - Most podiums by driver;
  • MostWinsByCar - Most wins by cars;
  • MostWinsByConstructor - Most wins by engine constructor;
  • MostWinsByDriver - Most wins by driver;
  • MostWinsByTeam - Most wins by team;
  • MostWinsByTeamWAppr - Most wins by team with approximations (group similar team names);
  • RaceAvgSpdKmhRecords - Average speed in km/h records;
  • RaceDistKmRecords - Distance in km records;
  • RaceLapsRecords - Total number of laps records;
  • Races - List races with distance in km and mi, laps, average speed in km/h and mi/h;
  • Results - Reconstruct results from different tables (used for verification of processing);
  • TotalStartsByDriver - Total starts by driver (including only positions, NC, DNF and DSQ);
  • Winners - Winners per race;
  • WinnersByClass - Winners by car class per race;
  • WinningCarNumbers - Winning car numbers.

Routines

  • check_position - Checks position for number, NC, DNF, DNS, DSQ values;
  • cleanup - Cleans up tables driver_results, team_results, results, car_tyres, car_numbers, cars, drivers, teams, resets AUTO_INCREMENT and marks all records in table results_in as not processed;
  • drv_full_name - Builds the full name of driver including titles, nickname and suffix if any;
  • num_to_pos - Convert number to alphanumeric position (including NC, DNF, DNS, etc.);
  • pos_to_num - Convert alphanumeric position to number (with weights for NC, DNF, DNS, etc.);
  • process_results - Processes results from results_in into tables cars, car_numbers, car_tyres, results, teams, team_results, drivers and driver_results. Sets the record in results_in as processed.

TODO

  • Add more statistics over the results tables.
