22 telling stats on every driver to race in the 2022 F1 season · RaceFans

In 2021, there were 21 drivers who competed in at least one race. In 2022, that symmetry continued with Nico Hulkenberg and Nyck de Vries getting to race for Sebastian Vettel and Alexander Albon, respectively.

So as 2022 comes to a close, it’s time to look back all 22 drivers and offer a telling stat for each that encapsulates their season during the 73rd running of the Formula 1 world championship.

Max Verstappen

Max Verstappen, Red Bull, Yas Marina, 2022
Most wins in a season (15), most points ever scored in a single season (454) and first driver in 40 years to match John Watson’s record of multiple victories in a season from tenth or lower on the grid

Sergio Perez

As well as his first pole and taking multiple wins in a season for the first time in his career, Perez managed to score 40% of Red Bull’s total points in 2022 – an increase over 2021, where his share was only 32.45%

Charles Leclerc

Charles Leclerc, Ferrari, Singapore, 2022
Leclerc’s nine pole positions throughout the 2022 season were the most any Ferrari driver has taken since Michael Schumacher secured pole 11 times in 2001. Only Niki Lauda in 1974 took as many poles for Ferrari but failed to win the title

Carlos Sainz Jnr

Carlos Sainz Jr, Ferrari, Interlagos, 2022
Third place became Sainz’s position in 2022. He started third more than anyone else (seven times), finished third five times and spent more laps in third than any other driver (328). He also became the second Spanish driver ever to win and take pole in F1

George Russell

In his first season at Mercedes, Russell achieved what only Alonso has ever done before – finished ahead of Hamilton at more races (11) than Hamilton beat him (9) – including his Brazil win

Lewis Hamilton

Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes, Yas Marina, 2022
As well as going winless for the very first season in his career, Hamilton also went without a pole position for the first time, only starting from the front row once in Brazil

Esteban Ocon

Esteban Ocon, Alpine, Spa-Francorchamps, 2022
Ocon equalled his best ever championship position in eighth and set his highest points tally. But despite finishing ahead of Alonso, he was out-qualified by him 12-9 and spent 177 more laps behind him over the year

Fernando Alonso

Fernando Alonso, Alpine, Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, 2022
Alonso retired from more races due to car failure than any other driver in 2022. He retired five times from his car breaking down and was eliminated from Imola due to damage after being hit by Mick Schumacher

Lando Norris

Lando Norris, McLaren, Imola, 2022
Norris took ‘best of the rest’ honours as highest-placed midfield driver eight times in qualifying and eight times in grands prix and took the only midfield podium of the year in Imola

Daniel Ricciardo

Daniel Ricciardo, McLaren, Circuit Zandvoort, 2022
