Re: Unusual F1 Stats

Lewis Hamilton broke a record today. Longest interval between the first and the last pole position: 16 years, 1 month and 13 days (Canada 2007 - Hungary 2023). Kimi was the previous record holder with 15 years, 2 months and 4 days (Europe 2003 - Italy 2018). Prior to today Hamilton's interval was 14...

Re: Unusual F1 Stats

Fernando Alonso and his stats for the upcoming 2023 season is something I have been keeping an eye on: Alonso will be the first to reach 20 seasons as a driver. As it is he is sharing the current record of 19 with Schumacher, Barrichello and Raikkonen. If Alonso scores two podiums in 2023 he will be...

Re: 2023 team launches etc

AlphaTauri for those menacing looking 'blender knives' wheels. Williams for the clean, sleek, french ocean blue-ish chassis color. Reminds me of the old ...

Re: Unusual F1 Stats

As Verstappen claimed pole position yesterday for the Mexican GP, James Hinchcliffe said on F1TV it was 11 different pole sitters in the last 11 Mexican Grand Prix. That's incorrect as Senna had back-to-back poles in '88 and '89. 1. 2022 Max Verstappen 2. 2019 Charles Leclerc 3. 2018 Daniel Ricciard...

Ericsson vs. Nasr 2015
Head-to-Head stats

Qualifying: 6-6
Points positions: 4-3

On paper Marcus Ericsson is having a helluva season!
The fact that Nasr has more than double the points haul
of Ericsson is IRRELEVANT.
