    Max only the 4th driver in history to win at least 1 race in 10 consecutive seasons and by far the youngest at 27. Prost, Schumacher and Lewis all were in there thirties.

    I feel like it’s unusual for only 1 driver to have been lapped in a full length F1 race without a safety car. Has this happened before?
