The World Championship Driver Spotlight

World Championship

On his way to securing his second world championship Max Verstappen put together one of the most dominant seasons in Formula 1 history. Red Bull’s flying Dutchman was in brilliant form all year as he became just the 11th driver to win back-to-back world titles. But what do the numbers say about his perfor mance in 2022?

Verstappen won a record-breaking 15 races this year – including nine of the last 11 rac es – setting the new benchmark for the most wins in a season, as he surpassed the previous record of 13, that was held by Michael Schum acher and Sebastian Vettel.

Verstappen’s 15 victories came in 22 Grands Prix, which means he stood on the top step of the po dium at 68.2% of the races this season. This is the fifth best win percentage in an F1 season and the second best since 2005 – only bettered by Vettel’s 68.4%-win rate in 2013.

He may not have always started on pole, but Verstappen made sure he had a clear line to the first corner more often than not as he started on the front row 13 times this season.

This was the gap from Verstap pen to second-placed Charles Leclerc in the drivers’ cham pionship. This was the largest margin of victory in the hybrid era – surpassing Hamilton’s 124-point win over Valtteri Bottas in 2020 – and the second best in F1 history – behind Vet tel’s 155-point gap to Fernando Alonso in 2013.

Verstappen finished on the podium 17 times in total this year – a third place finish in Monaco and second place in Austria to go along with his 15 wins. Unfortunately for the Dutch driver this did not match the record for the most podiums in a season – which is 18 – although Verstappen will sleep well knowing that he set that landmark in 2021.

Yuki Tsunoda is a Japanese racing driver who is racing for Scuderia AlphaTauri in Formula One. Supported by Honda since 2016 through the Honda Formula Dream Project, he was the 2018 Japanese F4 champion and in 2019

Yuki Tsunoda will be expected to take a forward step and lead AlphaTauri next sea son after Pierre Gasly’s decision to depart for

Yuki Tsunoda has taken the positives from a tough second season with AlphaTauri, insisting that they will bounce back together after the team dropped from sixth to ninth in the constructors’ standings under F1’s new technical regulations.

Yuki Tsunoda

AlphaTauri were a consistent points-scoring operation before the sport’s rules reset, with standout re cent results including Pierre Gasly’s victory at the 2020 Italian Grand Prix and another podium finish in Azerbaijan last year. However, the 2022 campaign –which heralded overhauled car designs – saw them mostly limited to minor points finishes and, after narrowly losing out to Haas, the Italian team wound up ninth in the championship, ahead only of Wil liams.

But despite this disappointment, summed up by a frustrating run to P11 at the Abu Dhabi finale, Tsuno da feels he “learned lots of things” during his sophomore F1 season, and paid tribute to outgoing team mate Pierre Gasly. Speaking after the Yas Marina race, Tsunoda said: “The last six or seven laps, the tyre was good, then suddenly the tyre dropped and I couldn’t keep up the pace from the fronts. I felt there was a good chance to score points, but I couldn’t keep up the pace. It’s a shame, but at the same time I did my best.”

Will Schumacher be back for F1?

Schumacher began his career in karting in 2008, progressing to the German ADAC Formula 4 by 2015. After winning the 2018 FIA F3 European Championship, he progressed to Formula 2 in 2019, and won the 2020 Formula 2 Championship. He is the son of seven-time Formula One World Champion Michael Schumacher, nephew of Ralf Schumacher and cousin of David Schumacher. Schumacher was born in Vufflens-le-Château, and grew up in Gland. He is the son of seven-time For mula One World Champion Michael Schumacher and Western riding European Champion Corinna Schumacher. His uncle Ralf Schumacher is also a retired racing driver and former Formula One driver. His cousin David Schumacher is a racing driver as well. Schumacher is the step-nephew of Sebastian Stahl and grandson of Elisabeth and Rolf Schumacher.

Schumacher drove for the Haas team in 2021 after signing a multi-year contract, alongside Nikita Maze pin, with whom he raced in go-karts.He chose to race with the number 47 as his two favourite numbers, 4 and 7, were already in use by Lando Norris and Kimi Räikkönen respectively. Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto said that he expected Schumacher to have a “very difficult” first season, but added that he believed he could drive for Ferrari as early as 2023. Schumacher qualified nineteenth for his debut race, the Bahrain Grand Prix, ahead of teammate Maze pin. He spun on the first lap but was able to continue, eventually finishing last of the remaining drivers in sixteenth place. At the next race, the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, he crashed in front of the pit lane exit during a safety car period, breaking off his front wing, and went on to finish sixteenth. He crashed heavily in practice for the Monaco Grand Prix and the team was unable to repair his car in time for qualifying. He performed one of the only on-track overtakes of the Grand Prix, passing Mazepin at the Grand Hotel Hairpin on the opening lap.[40] At the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, he overtook Mazepin short ly before the finish line, beating him by 0.074 seconds to claim thirteenth place.

Track From

The race had two different names believe it or not, the first world championship race had two titles. Officially it was the Grand Prix d’Europe - the first time that title had ever gone to a race outside Italy or France - but as the race was held on UK soil it incorporated the British Grand Prix. Unlike today when the season-opening event is traditionally held in March, the race took place on May 13. Only six world cham pionship season openers have been held later in the year. They were: 1951 (May 27), 1952 (May 18), 1961 (May 14), 1962 (May 20), 1963 (May 26) and 1966 (May 22).

The Past.

Woodcote was the first corner the drivers tackled from 1952 until 2011 Woodcote was Silverstone’s final bend, but for the inaugural world championship event the sweeping right hander was the 4.6km circuit’s first corner - and thus the first corner tackled in the history of F1 racing. From there the drivers would take on six other turns - Copse, Maggots, Becketts, Chapel, Stowe and Club - before arriving at the final corner, Abbey. The pit lane and starting grid were situated between Abbey and Woodcote, with the cars lining up for the start in 4-3-4 formation.

The old meets

The Las Vegas Street Circuit, which Formula 1 will race on when the series returns to the city next year, has been revised according to updated imagery issued by the promoters. The total number of corners on the track has increased from 14 to 17 due to the addition of a new chicane.

The left-right corner combination has been inserted in the middle of turn six, which was originally intended to be a continuous, 180-degree bend. The cars will then briefly head straight on before reaching another new corner, turn nine, a tight left-hander. The rest of the track is unchanged.

From there the cars will rejoin the original route. The change is likely to reduce approach speeds to the re-numbered turns 10, 11 and 12 (previously turns seven to nine). The latter is the final corner before cars reach the famous Las Vegas strip. This signature section of the track will see the drivers stay flat-out for almost two kilometres as they pass a number of famous Las Vegas landmarks. The promoter continues to quote top speeds of 342kph (212mph) for this section, but F1 drivers have predicted that could increase to 370kph with DRS activated and slip streams from other cars.

The length of the circuit is largely unchanged by the alteration, according to the promoters. Its length re mains approximately 6.1 kilometres (3.8 miles), meaning the grand prix distance will be 50 laps. They indi cated it will have two DRS zones.
