      @@KozKalanndok yep, it was 7 even. The race that has (and realistically, will forever have) the current record for least classified finishers is the 1966 Monaco GP which saw just 4 cars make it 90% towards the then still 100 laps of Monaco. Really it makes sense considering that Monaco was 100 laps back then and that this was the first year that had the 90% rule, otherwise this race would've had 6 finishers, in which case I think the record would go to the 20 lap shorter '68 Monaco GP with 5 finishers no matter how you count it (the 6th place person went out on lap 16).

    One unique event in f1 that I think should have been mentioned was the 1954 British grand prix - then, as now, there was an extra point on offer for fastest lap- but with mechanical stopwatches, laps were only measured to the nearest whole second. At this race, 7 drivers set a 1:50, meaning 7 drivers each got 1/7 of a point.
    This also meant that Mike Hawthorn finished the season with 24 and 9/14 points

    When Max started he beat the youngest ever driver record by almost 2 years, not almost 1 year, according to your list the youngest ever driver at that point was Jaime Alguersuari at 19 years and 125 days compared to Max's 17 years and 166 days.

He still went out onto the track after the grid starters had passed the pit exit, as normal in a regular pit start, and unbelievably not a single steward noticed the bright yellow car he was driving until about lap five or so when he retired due to an engine failure.

Money is a massive motivator, especially if the parents have sacrificed a lot to get their kid this far... so if, for instance, another Max Verstappen type were to rise through the ranks and get in at 17 again... and then die on track... or just get severely injured... it raises the prospect of legal responsibility of letting a minor take part in a known deadly sport.

F2 though, does have the most license points at 40 for the top three so it would be the "easiest" to get your license in but not exclusive to it. You can jump from F3 to F1 if you place 2nd two years in a row and ditto with Formula E, Formula Euro and if you place first twice in LMP 2 (World Endurance) two years in a row. If anything, it encourages mixing and matching and encouraging high-placing racers to push ahead. I can see why you would think that with the most points being given by F2 though.

    The only F1 weekend iv'e ever attended was the 2021 Belgium Grand Prix haha.. Was a bit sad, but honestly i completely understood the decision, after the F2 race it was raining nonstop without interruption. Was still a nice weekend though with F2, WSeries and Porsche Cup and of course the rest of F1.
    So hopefully this stays a "only happened once thing" and this year i gotta see a F1 race there :D

      Yup it was for me my first and only one aswell, (probably gonna stay the only one for awhile sadly) and tbh i didnt understand the decision, it wasnt raining that bad i felt like, i barely got wet as it only drizzled, but im guessing the main reason was the poor vision of the spray of the cars, which sucks tho i hope they will make changes that we have less spray because wet races are always one of the most entertaining to watch, and we definitely dont wanna have the fair again of being scared we cant race because of the rain

    Of course, we cannot mention weird moments from F1 history without mentioning the 3 way tie for pole position in Jerez 1997. The top three drivers on the grid, Jacques Villeneuve, Michael Schumacher and Heinz Harold Frentzen, all set exactly the same time to three decimal places, with the official time difference showing "+0.000". The order was decided by whichever driver set the time first, which was Villeneuve.
    Just as remarkable, but overshadowed by the 3 way tie for pole, was the driver closest to that time. At the time, it wouldn't have been too surprising if it was one of the two McLarens of Mika Hakkinen or David Coulthard, possibly one of the young Jordan drivers of Ralf Schumacher or Giancarlo Fisichella, but no. The next closest driver to the rime set by the top 3 was set by Arrows driver, and outgoing world champion, Damon Hill. Martin Brundle put it best:
    "Who would have expected, after the winter testing here [Jerez] when Damon was 4 or 5 seconds off the pace, that he would be just 1 tenth [of a second] off a pole position?"

    With the double points this means he has to finish 2nd if Rosberg wins.
