This thread will be about fastest times of the year 2019. It will only record them at world and continental scales, so don't ask for national!
I'll try to update it as much as I can.

I would very much like to see something like this for official rankings. World records could still stand, and at this point improvement has been fast enough to make it virtually a moot point, but if for the WCA rankings only times recorded in the last 12 or 24 months counted it would give a better idea of who is good now, rather than somebody who was just ahead of their time and doesn’t compete anymore.
 
@Faz Feliks Zemdegs got YWR Average (6.40) and YOcR Single (5.18)
@Anthony Anthony Brooks got YNAR Single (5.58)
@? Rodrigo Paz Vaca got YSAR Single (6.65)
@? Zhouheng Sun got YAsR Average (7.49)


Congrats for all these new best times of the year!

That's a start, if there was an option for that "only 2019" selection in the records page that would probably be what you are looking for.
 
North America continues to dominate, with Patrick Ponce's NAR and YWR! Also, Max Park continues to lower the average YWR, with a 6.06. Will the next average record be sub-6?
