every competition in the archive that stores a position for each lap — 253 of them, 2003 onwards. Positions are not stored everywhere: 2007 carries none at all and 2006 very few, so a season is only as complete as its source. Individual races only — relays carry no lap positions. Skaters with fewer than 20 laps in the season are left out.
