Vicente Molina
4×4 · top 4.6% of 83,917 all-time · competing since April 2023 · 2023IBAR05
Vicente Molina has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 4×4: a personal-best single of 32.59, set at Campeonato de Verano Santiago 2026, puts him in the top 4.6% of the 83,917 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 32nd in Chile. Until November 2010, no official 4×4 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since April 2023, he has put 164 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 92% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 6 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 32.75 in April 2023 to 9.49, a 71% improvement. Vicente has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% of everyone who has ever competed.

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
