Getting individual array elements from the data returned by a chainlink external adapter

In the job I'm adding for my external adapter, I'm looking to get results for the first 3 elements in the Results array one at a time.(see the data returned from my external adapter below)

So I'm adding "position" to my chainlink request in the consumer contract and wanting to use that in the jsonparse like below, rather than pass it to the external adapter. However, I get this error JSONParse task error: $(decode_cbor.position) is not a valid array index

parse        [type=jsonparse path="data,MRData,RaceTable,Races,0,Results,$(decode_cbor.position),number" data="$(fetch)"]```

in my consumer contract

Chainlink.Request memory request = buildChainlinkRequest(jobId, address(this), this.fulfill.selector);
request.add("position", "1");

The data returned from the external adapter looks like this.

The full results can be found here. http://ergast.com/api/f1/current/last/results.json

Should I be able to do something like this? Is there a better way to go about this? Should I edit the adapter instead?
