Fastest Typists in United Kingdom

The United Kingdom uses the ISO layout rather than the American ANSI one, and the differences are small but real: a taller Enter key, an extra key beside the left Shift, the @ and double-quote symbols swapped, and the pound sign living on the number row. None of that touches the letter keys, so British typists compete on exactly the same footing for word-based tests — the layout only shows up once punctuation enters the picture.

That extra key next to left Shift is the one thing worth knowing about: it narrows the left Shift key, and typists who pivot their left hand to reach it can lose a few milliseconds on every capital. If your accuracy drops in Mixed Case mode but holds up everywhere else, that is usually the culprit, and it is worth drilling deliberately.
