@the_sigman
It was only a guess I shall think of my question to you all when I do my paper round
Roughly how many parts are there in an f1 car
@roblo97 Isn’t it some crazy number like 80 000?
@nicolassunderland Correct
OK…
Who was the last driver to race the #1 car without having won the championship in the previous year?
Name, team, and year.
John Watson drove Niki Lauda’s No. 1 McLaren at Brands Hatch in 1985.
@anto Correct.
What’s the highest grid position that nobody has won a grand prix from?
John Watson won from 23rd once so I guess 24th
I’m gonna guess something like 9th.
17th?
@joey-zyla Kimi Räikkönen famously won the 2005 Japanese GP from 17th on the grid.
@brazil2007 For some reason I kept thinking it was 15th. Oh, well.
@joey-zyla You’ve just inspired me to guess…
15th?
19th? racing-reference.info has the winner’s starting grid position from every F1 race.
