2022 retrodiction
How dominant was Benzema’s 2022?
A historical race rerun through the same published 100-point framework.
Real-data provisional ranking
Every displayed component is computed from current API-Football fixture, event, player-stat, standings, and pre-match Elo evidence. The ranking remains provisional—not illustrative—until the locked 2024–2025 historical holdout gate is complete.
Awaiting backtest
The scoring protocol is prepared for a held historical race once aggregate and fixture coverage pass the completeness threshold.
No modeled winner is shown until the coverage audit and validation gate pass.
