So the stats on race wins coupled with pole positions confirms that Michael S weakness was qualifying?
Got a bit to do with number of races competed in. If you can sort some sort of mathematical table to sort this out you will qualify for a high flying job with Sage! |

https://f1metrics.wordpress.com/2019/11/22/the-f1metrics-top-100/ The caveat from the list I would mention is: The top 7 all-time greats At this point in the top 100 list, it would be fair to say we have reached drivers with no obvious gaps remaining in their game. Indeed, the peak performances of the top 7 drivers in the list are all within statistical uncertainty of the #1 driver in the list, meaning we cannot say with any great confidence how the top 7 should be ordered. |

It's strange (and, forgive me, rather off-topic) but my abiding memory of 'our Nige' was seeing him going through as the last of the teams at scrutineering at Le Mans in 2010 with his sons. There were only a few people left watching scrutineering in the town and the ACO staff were literally taking down the scrutineering area as he and his car passed through it, it was rather sad to watch. But not quite as sad as the performance in the race when he shunted it after just 4 laps..... not particularly hircine......

for such a data driven sport surely there exists useful data sets that at least begins to speak to comparing across eras (as mentioned for me it is win totals combined with win%). that may not give us a definitive answer but surely it is enough to objectively exclude some from the conversation. but that aside, Graham Hill has the best motorsports moustache ever! scientifically speaking it had aerodynamic properties.: rotate: |

Obviously Schumacher’s number is impressive. Was his weakness qualifying? I think he was just so strong in the race and, compared to some of his main competitors, lost out to some really good qualifiers. As is Prost’s as a proportion of his overall wins. I remember his approach being very much get the race right and, of course, came from a different era. But that is probably. I wouldn’t describe any of these at weak at an aspect of racing, but rather they had different strengths. There is some era differences creeping in here.

Michael wasn’t quick over a single lap than Mika, the one man he truly feared. An even bigger weakness though was his susceptibility to pressure

Yes, so Hamilton is bound to have more races, he hasn’t missed a race since his debut!

The Mercedes Team won the world championship in 2009. Not very fledgling.

number of wins per chassis (unfortunately or maybe fortunately i dont have the time to break down which win went to each driver) from that site. lots of fun for nerd to be found here for sure! https://www.statsf1.com/en/statistiq...re/modele.aspx the W07 Merc is at the top of the list with 19 wins(with both Nico and LH winning a lot of races that season), but after that, wins by chassis seems fairly close with cars like the Mclaren M23 and Ferrari F2002 having run across multiple season. does that neutralizes the actual number of races per season argument? rather, if Schumi, Prost, Senna had run more races in seasons in which they won the title would their win totals be higher? no doubt yes with the MP4/4, but even with Prost or Senna surely that alone doesn't bridge the gap of making up the 40+ less wins deficit they have to LH. Schumi on the other hand would surely have scored more wins meaning LH might not yet have eclipsed this record. obviously in isolation these numbers dont mean much though...just fun for nerds though! |

I was pointing out the Mercedes team of 2010 were not a fledgling outfit.
It was a ready made gang and you could consider that they should have had more success early on. This raises the point that it wasn’t until Lewis joined they became successful. That should guarantee that this thread carries on for another page! |
