... a bit of fate testing here... but anyway:
The Merc W05 clearly has a massive advantage over the rest of the field which probably wont be bridged before the end of the season.... which means that potentially we are looking at another 1988 or 2002... plus we have two very competent drivers (one of whom may well be an all time talent)... so, IMHO, we are looking at both team and driver records under threat. My question is: which ones do you think will definitely go and which ones are in play. For me:
Potentials:
Most wins in a season by a driver - currently 13 by MSC in 2002 and SV in 2013
Most consecutive wins by a driver in a season - 9 by SV in 2013
Most consecutive poles by a driver - 8 by Senna over the back end of 1988 and the start of 1989
Most fastest laps in a season by a driver - 10 by MSC in 2004 and KR in 2005 and 2008
Probably unreachable:
Most poles in a season by a driver - 15 by SV in 2011
Highest percentage of wins by a driver in a season - currently 75% by Ascari (6/8) in 1952
Highest ratio of poles in a season by a driver - 88% (14/16) by Mansell in 1992
Highest percentage of fastest laps in a season by a driver - 75% (6/8) Ascari in 1952
BTW I could see NR on the podium every race of the season ... but MSC already did that in 2002.
What do you think??
