2014 Season Stats

F1 over for another year, so probably a good time to sum up the season with stats on all drivers and teams.

Simple table to start, final championship position of each driver with their wins, podium finishes, poles, fastest laps and points. Just three drivers won a race, and they finished in the top three, Hamilton had over twice the wins of Rosberg and definitely deserved the title, just a shame we couldn’t have had a fight for the championship in Abu Dhabi for the win.

Hamilton also had the most podiums of the season, but only just, and the most fastest laps of the season. Rosberg took home the pointless pole award with his ten, Massa the only non-Mercedes driver to score a pole.

Pos Driver Team Race Grid Qual Fastest Lap
1 Lewis Hamilton Mercedes 10 7 7 11
2 Nico Rosberg Mercedes 4 12 12 8
3 Daniel Ricciardo Red Bull 11 10 12 10
4 Valtteri Bottas Williams 7 13 13 6
5 Sebastian Vettel Red Bull 3 9 7 9

7 Felipe Massa Williams 8 6 6 10
8 Jenson Button McLaren 14 9 10 10

10 Sergio Perez Force India 7 8 7 7
11 Kevin Magnussen McLaren 3 10 9 9
12 Kimi Raikkonen Ferrari 1 3 3 4
13 Jean-Eric Vergne Toro Rosso 6 9 7 9
14 Romain Grosjean Lotus 5 14 15 8
15 Daniil Kvyat Toro Rosso 5 10 12 10
16 Pastor Maldonado Lotus 5 5 4 9
17 Jules Bianchi Marussia 8 11 12 7
18 Adrian Sutil Sauber 5 12 10 9
19 Marcus Ericsson Caterham 2 5 4 7
20 Esteban Gutierrez Sauber 5 7 9 9

22 Kamui Kobayashi Caterham 5 10 11 6
23 Will Stevens Caterham 0 0 0 0
24 Andre Lotterer Caterham 0 1 1 0

Table above shows how well each driver has done against their teammate in races. So for example, Hamilton has finished ahead of Rosberg ten times, and Rosberg ahead of Hamilton four times, but it only counts as finishing ahead if BOTH drivers finish the race, which is why they won’t add up to 19. Grid of course refers to the actual grid position, but qualifying is their qualifying position, before any penalties were applied, and fastest lap if they set a laptime in the race quicker than their teammate.

Fernando Alonso has been the most dominant teammate in 2014, finishing ahead of Raikkonen 15 times, being beaten just once, with similar results in qualifying and fastest laps. Red Bull rookie Daniel Ricciardo performed incredibly against four time champion Sebastian Vettel, beating him 11-3 in the races and 12-7 in qualifying. At Toro Rosso it’s fairly even, with Kvyat having a slight advantage in qualifying, perhaps a bit unfair to drop Vergne, but that’s what Toro Rosso do.

Pos Driver Team Out Q1 Out Q2 In Q3

5 Sebastian Vettel Red Bull 1 4 14
6 Fernando Alonso Ferrari 1 0 18
7 Felipe Massa Williams 2 2 15

11 Kevin Magnussen McLaren 0 4 15

13 Jean-Eric Vergne Toro Rosso 0 11 8

15 Daniil Kvyat Toro Rosso 0 11 8
16 Pastor Maldonado Lotus 16 3 0
17 Jules Bianchi Marussia 12 3 0
18 Adrian Sutil Sauber 7 11 1
19 Marcus Ericsson Caterham 16 0 0
20 Esteban Gutierrez Sauber 7 12 0
21 Max Chilton Marussia 15 1 0
22 Kamui Kobayashi Caterham 15 1 0
23 Will Stevens Caterham 1 0 0
24 Andre Lotterer Caterham 1 0 0

Final driver table, and one that is slightly wrong to make it easier for myself. As I auto-calculate everything for these tables in Excel it’s far easier to stick to one system, so even though for the last three races Q1 and Q2 were different, I’m calculating them as if they are the same. Plus as the two teams missing from the grid were generally the last four, it makes sense for a comparative point of view to keep the same system.

Anyway, Rosberg and Ricciardo were the only two drivers to reach Q3 on every Saturday, Maldonado and Ericsson the two drivers to drop out of Q1 the most times. Jules Bianchi did incredibly well to reach Q2 three times, the same amount as Lotus driver Pastor Maldonado.

Pos Team Wins Podiums Poles Fastest Laps Points
1 Mercedes 16 31 18 12 701
2 Red Bull 3 12 0 3 405
3 Williams 0 9 1 2 320
4 Ferrari 0 2 0 1 216
5 McLaren 0 2 0 0 181
6 Force India 0 1 0 1 155
7 Toro Rosso 0 0 0 0 30
8 Lotus 0 0 0 0 10
9 Marussia 0 0 0 0 2
10 Sauber 0 0 0 0 0
11 Caterham 0 0 0 0 0

Simple and short table for the teams, Mercedes quite obviously dominated everything, most wins, podiums, poles, fastest laps and points. Red Bull the only other team to win a race, Williams the only other team to start on pole. Marussia finished in a very impressive ninth place but unfortunately are unlikely to return in 2015.
