Other stats

I think it's about time for the teammate head to heads, starting with the three teams at the back of the grid and moving my way up. So who was the better driver at HRT, Marussia and Caterham last year?

Well the season is finally over, guess it's time for some full stats of the 2012 season. You may remember me doing something similar a few weeks ago (here) but now it's over I can give even more stats and info.

Something I thought about earlier on in the day, does Bottas replacing Senna in FP1 have any effect on Senna's qualifying performance? Could Williams have many more points if Senna was given more FP1 time?

So who deserves the title? Alonso? Vettel? Karthikeyan? Or just whoever finishes with the most points. There are two races left, fifty points up for grabs and just two drivers able to win. Four drivers have been leading the Drivers' Championship at some point in the season, Alonso has led for 10 races, Vettel for 5, Hamilton for 2 and Jenson Button just 1.

Accurate information on the lengths of straights in Formula One is hard to come by, often with very different lengths from different websites and sources, so I have done my best to find the real lengths of the longest straights from reliable sources.
