Surprised to see Raikkonen outqualified Grosjean over the season, my impression this season had been that Grosjean was faster in quali, but Raikkonen had the race pace (and race craft), that is unless those stats take into account grid penalties.
It includes race penalties by the looks of things, but i left out the race Grosjean was disqualified.
Harsh stat for Kamui, just 6 points less than Sergio who is off to McLaren yet he could be without a drive in F1.
Problem is that in terms of laps ahead of his teammate he's about level with Grosjean. Probably why his season felt underwhelming when it wasn't results wise. Only Grosjean, Massa and Webber (no2 drivers of champions) and Karthikeyan are worse off in that stat. Still we all wish he could stay.
Sorry, it was the fanboy in me taking over. However I do take pride in the fact that Schumacher did level up Rosberg in Qualifying, excluding penalties.
Just done some quick sums and Perez's average finishing position is 8.85 and Kobay is 9.81. That one place makes all the difference
I don't know why, but I can't warm to the guy.. Agree with others, no Kamui in F1 makes me a sad punter! Hope he can find some backing and get the FI seat (only decent one left?) and take it to Dire Resta, which, lets be honest, won’t be that hard!
I'd have guessed thats no where near enough... to get a look in/be considered, I'd have thought he'd have to come with a $5M+ package?
