Great work. Felipe Massa's qualifying stats are really bad, but I think this is due to his teammates (Schumacher, Räikkönen, Alonso). Fangio's 39-2 is really impressive.

Here is my list of Formula 1 constructors who never started a race:

1. Life 12 entries
2. Maki 8 entries
3. Kauhsen 2 entries
4. Fry 1 entry
-. Apollon 1 entry
-. McGuire 1 entry
-. Arzani-Volpini 1 entry
-. Cisitalia 1 entry

List of teams/constructors that scored most podiums, but no wins (by Stats F1, no Indy 500 included)

BAR - 15
Toyota - 13
Sauber - 10
Arrows - 8
Toleman, Lola (including all incarnations) and Prost - 3 (if you consider Copersucar and Fittipaldi as a 'single entity with different name', they also summed 3 podiums overall)
Talbot-Lago, Gordini, Surtees, Fittipaldi, Dallara/Scuderia Italia and Jaguar - 2
Lancia, Connaught, Copersucar, Onyx, Leyton House, Footwork and Force India - 1

Now that's a thread that I have been waiting for! I tryed doing a simliar thing, but it didn't take off. This is way better than I could have ever done. I'll chip in with a few suggestions.

Longest time between race wins for a team.

Lowest place in the constructors championship, before winning the championship the following year.

Lowest place in the constructors championship, after wining the championship the previous year.

Least amount of points finishes after becoming world champion.

Probably, he is runner-up in least amount of career points for a world champion with 109. Right behind Phil Hill with 98. Of course, the points system was different back then.

I would suggest Ligier, as a continuous entity, as opposed to Mercedes, which wasn't. And their winless streak was what, 15 years?

Lowest place in the constructors championship, after wining the championship the previous year.

Ferrari, 1980, surely?

According to wikipedia, it was between September 27th, 1981 with Jaques Laffite winning the Canadian GP, and May 19, 1996 with Olivier Panis at the Monaco GP. A little over 15 years.

Wet conditions are quite difficult to analyze sometimes.

For example, in Michael Schumacher's case these wins are obvious:
1992 Belgium, 1995 Belgium-Europe-Japan, 1996 Spain, 1997 Monaco-France-Belgium, 1998 Britain, 2000 Europe-Canada-USA, 2001 Malaysia, 2002 Britain, 2003 USA, 2006 China. That's 16, so 5 missing.

For Senna
1985 Portugal-Belgium, 1988 Britain-Germany, 1989 Belgium, 1990 Canada, 1991 San Marino-Australia, 1993 Brazil-Europe-Japan. 11, so 2 missing.

Even for Hamilton I count
2007 Japan, 2008 Monaco-Britain and 2010 Belgium, a total of 4.

Button is one I can agree.
2006 Hungary, 2009 Malaysia, 2010 Australia-China, 2011 Canada-Hungary, 2012 Brazil

The way I compiled these 'wet wins stats' was, that even the smallest of rain drops for even just five minutes of a Grand Prix, is considered a 'wet win'. Even a wet/dry win was included as a 'wet win' in this particular compilation above.

Your 5 missing for MS:
Sepang 2004:
By the second lap, rain started to fall and cars were starting to lose traction on the dry tyres.

A1 Ring 2003:
After 15 laps rain fell on parts of the track.

Suzuka 2000:
Light rain throughout the race.

Buenos Aires 1998:
Light rain towards the end of the race. MS and several others went off-track.

Montreal 1994:
Rain began to fall down at mid-distance and on lap 40 Irvine spun off at the last corner.

Your 2 missing for Senna:

Interlagos 1991:
It began to rain during the last couple of laps.

Suzuka 1988:
The track became wet towards the middle and the end of the race.

Bleu wrote:Even for Hamilton I count
2007 Japan, 2008 Monaco-Britain and 2010 Belgium, a total of 4.

Can be, but if there wasn't (of if there was that time), could imagine the tons of drivers that could get more results?

I would have only classified a race as "wet" if inters or full wet tyres had to be used by any car at any point of the race. Not if there was a brief drizzle which burned off as soon as it hit the track! :)

Having crashes and hydraulic failures.

Sutil is slowly but surely climbing the ladder of drivers with the most Grand Prix without a podium finish.

After the Malaysian GP, Sutil has now competed in 92 Grand Prix. And no podium finish yet.
This places him in fifth spot of all time (leader of active drivers).

Three more GP without a podium, and Sutil will tie Katayama for 4th place on the all-time list.
Six more GP and he will tie Pedro Diniz for 3rd place.

Seventeen more GP (co-incidentally the exact number of races left of the 2013 season) and he will tie Alliot for 2nd place.

So if Sutil isn't able to reach the podium in any race this season, he will start the 2014 season only behind Pierluigi Martini.
Needing nine GP without a podium to tie Martini, and then one more to become the leader of this most rejectful statistic.

I mean, forget chasing for a WDC or a GP win. Destiny has reserved that only for a select few drivers in F1 history.
And forget chasing for a single point in a career, cough cough Luca cough.

A podium finish is what every average driver dreams of. To be able to stand there with a trophy and spray the champagne in front of your team, and take part in the press conference. Will Sutil realize this goal?

I, for one, hope he will not make it.
Not because I have anything against him or his glass-cutting persona.
It would just be really amazing if he were to be the new "Podium-less" King of Formula 1, some time in the middle of next season.

Since we were cheated out of Nick Heidfeld becoming the Win-less King of F1 (he stopped as runner-up with 183 GP without a win, behind De Cesaris' 208 GP),
I have a feeling that we will see Sutil break the Podium-less record. Things have to even themselves out.

Most Grand Prix without a Podium Finish:

1 MARTINI Pierluigi 118
2 ALLIOT Philippe 109
3 DINIZ Pedro 98
4 KATAYAMA Ukyo 95
5 SUTIL Adrian 92
6 PALMER Jonathan 83
7 SURER Marc 81
8 LIUZZI Vitantonio 80
9 GHINZANI Piercarlo 76
10 NAKAJIMA Satoru 74
11 COMAS Erik 59

Needing nine GP without a podium to tie Martini, and then one more to become the leader of this most rejectful statistic.

I mean, forget chasing for a WDC or a GP win. Destiny has reserved that only for a select few drivers in F1 history.
And forget chasing for a single point in a career, cough cough Luca cough.

In my opinion, the most rejectful record is held by Claudio Langes: most entries without qualifying for a race (14 failures to pre-qualify).

I wouldn't like to see Sutil break this record as there are worse drivers who have had a podium (such as De Cesaris and Nelsinho Piquet).

The annoying thing is, that if Sutil hadn't felt compelled to break a champagne glass in 2011 and slice a guys neck open, he would claim this record for himself some time this summer. But alas...

Some say that he might have taken the McLaren seat instead of Perez. That is assuming he would have stayed at FI and beaten whoever would have been his team-mate.

Well looking at the two teams currently it could be said Sutil is more likely to gain a podium in a Force India than McLaren this season... :lol:

A few mistakes as far as I can see..Hamilton with five wet race victories? I can remember only 4: Fuji '07, Monaco '08, Silverstone '08 and Spa '10...

Also Alonso doesn't have 3 wet race victories, he has 4. Nurburgring '07, Korea '10, Silverstone '11 and Sepang '12.

And Raikkonen has 2 wet race victories, not 1. He won Spa '05 and Shanghai '07.

Hamilton:
Belgium 2010
Turkey 2010 (you missed this one, there was light drizzle in the latter phase of the race)
Britain 2008
Monaco 2008
Japan 2007


Alonso:
Europe 2007
South Korea 2010
Malaysia 2012
Britain 2011 (you're right, I didn't notice it when compiling because I only looked for races where it was some kind of downpour, this race started with a wet track but never had downpour. I added this win to Alonso's total. Thanks, well spotted.)


Raikkonen:
China 2007
Belgium 2005 (again same as alonso, well spotted, thanks for making the list more complete)

I'd thought that Istanbul was the one you were counting, but I didn't consider the rain to be enough to be classified as a wet race..nobody changed tyres..

Still great compilation, especially the fact that you did it manually. Superb!!

Here's a stat which made me go :o :shock:

"Nico Rosberg scored his last pole position [before Bahrain] 371 days ago, at the 2012 Chines Grand Prix. Remarkably, his father Keke Rosberg had the exact same number of days between his two most recent pole positions at the 1985 British and 1986 German Grands Prix."

I would love to have a look at the statistics for win by car numbers. I suspect that 5 would come out higher than 1 as I can recall quite a few championships being won by car number 5 when the world champion has struggled to drag inferior equipment round/lost desire/moved to a less competitive team. It would be interesting to see the spike in wins for number 22 after Lewis Hamilton's and Jenson Button's championship winning years. Has a number 22 car won a race outside of the years 2008/2009?

IIRC, 1 and 5 respective number of wins used to go very close together until some guy called Shoemaker started to win every year.

Highest one apart from 13 that doesn't have a win is 29.

Excellent! Anyone care to try to explain why 5 has had such a large number of wins? It is a consistently successful number - its not just one driver contributing to its number of wins and the number 5 has won a race almost every year since the 1990s. One explanation is that you are likely to be driving for a competitive team and be the number one driver in that team, but why are the numbers so much greater than for number 3?
