Control Trajectory

A beat-by-beat chart tracking Sonny Hayes's control over his racing career and the team's survival across all 40 beats. The shape is a U-curve: Sonny starts in deliberate exile near zero, builds through Act Two's rope-a-dope tactics and Kate's engineering upgrades to a peak at beat 17, crashes through the FIA sabotage and Ruben's firing to absolute zero at beat 26, then surges vertically through the Abu Dhabi finale to his first Formula One victory at 100.
