Kimi Raikkonen has scored 24 podiums since his last win in Australia 2013! #F1stat #F1

[Julien F1 @Julien_F1]

#F1 Podiums in 2008:

14 drivers scored at least 1 podium that year, coming from 9 (out of 11) teams.

There has to be another crazy race (like Baku last year) for any other driver than Ferrari, Mercedes or Red Bull to finish on the podium. Shows how far the top 3 teams are ahead

[Julien F1 @Julien_F1]

Lewis Hamilton's fastest lap in quali today (1:31.675) was 3 thousands of a second faster than his pole lap last year (1:31.678).

Hulkenberg qualified 7th for the 6th race in a row, and also qualified 7th in China last year, while Alonso also qualified 13th last year

@CK_Klien @F1 @suttonimages That was a big crash! In 2006 Melbourne wasn't the first race of the year though. You finished 8th in the first race in Bahrain 👍

Some possible lay-out alterations for @ttcircuitassen to make make overtaking for #F1-cars easier, without the circuit losing its character. Let's make it happen! #DutchGP @F1 #Assen #TTCircuit

The 2002 #F1-season got off to a flying start when Ralf Schumacher and @rubarrichello collided at the first corner. It was pure mayhem as 8 cars retired on the spot. Meanwhile @AussieGrit had a memorable debut-race. He finished 5th in a Minardi!

In Canada this year, @LewisHamilton matched Ayrton Senna's tally of 65 pole positions. He got a very special gift from the Senna family: A helmet Senna wore in 1987 at Lotus
