Rubens win at Valencia put Brazil among the countries with 100 or more F1 wins!

OMG amazing!
Have you calculated the wins by astrological signs as well? Who has the maximum wins, Gemini or Scorpio?!

How come "UK" stats but not Europe??

UK is a group of countries as you rightly mentioned as Brazil is a part of South America.

The day they start organizing or recognizing the pilots by their signs, there will be stats to match.

I always though that drivers were 'organized' by the teams they drove for in F1. Perhaps Brazilians can't spot the difference between A1GP and F1.

In competitions, the UK is referred to as GB, some even refer to it as GB and Northern Ireland.

Well, that's because the nation state is called 'The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland'.

I think you'll find it's a sovereign state and therefore one country made up of separate smaller minor countries.

How many does France have? Prost alone is on 51...

wasnt Glock fastest lap also Germany 100?

It's always funny when someone misses a joke and gets all hot under the collar about it.

If that's a joke, it's got to be the worse ever.

To call the UK a group of countries is the same as calling the US a group of states

I assure you Jackie Stewart considers himself Scottish first.

Because the UK although composed of 4 countries is a single sovereign state. Europe and South America are continents!

British drivers race under a British license and I'm sure that's how stats like this are calculated. A win for Nico Rosberg would be for Germany since that's the license he races on.

206 UK
106 Germany
100 Brazil
79 France
43 Finland
43 Italy
41 Austria
38 Argentina
33 USA
27 Australia

It all started with Emerson Fittipaldi, who opened the door to all the others by winning the 1970 US GP. Emmo won 13 times before Jose Carlos Pace's sole win, in the 1975 Brazilian GP.


Here's the selective 3-member club:


1st UK: 207 wins (among England, Scotland and Ireland)

2nd Germany: 106 wins (91 of them by MS!)

3rd Brazil: 100 wins (41 by Senna, 23 by Piquet, 14 by Emerson, 11 by Massa, 10 by Rubens and 01 by Pace).

Northern Irishmen are from the British Isles, so British is an acceptable term.

Dublin is a city in the British Isles, that doesn't make a Dubliner British.

At his first podium, a third place for Jordan at the 1995 Canadian Grand Prix, the British Union Flag was flown. However, at his third podium, a second place for Ferrari at the 1997 Argentine Grand Prix, an Irish Tricolour was mistakenly flown by the race organisers. This led to his family receiving threatening phone calls. Irvine then requested that at subsequent races, a politically neutral shamrock flag be flown, and the non-sectarian Londonderry Air be played to mark a victory. An FIA spokesman said: "As far as we understand, Irvine has a British passport so the Union Jack should be raised. ... I understand he has a special flag, but our regulations do not allow this."

Irvine has self-identified as being Irish: "But at the end of the day, I’m Irish. I mean, I’ve got a British passport, but if you’re from Ireland, north or south, you’re Irish. And 'British' is. . . such a nondescript thing, isn’t it?"

Eddie Irvine wanted to be Irish, had an Irish license, but had to represent Britain. Just like the Estonians, Latvians and Lithuanians had to represent Soviet Union.

Is Andy Priaulx not British then? He's not from the island of Great Britain, but the island of Guernsey.

Dublin is in Ireland, not the United Kingdom. What term do you want us to use for someone from the United Kingdom then other than British?

Fact is, any driver can claim to be from anywhere. Zuber races under a UAE licence, Piquet under a Brazilian one, even though they're Austrian and German by birth. And Damien Magee was from Northern Ireland but raced under an Irish licence.

If you compare wins per capita Finland is unbeatable.
