Re: Who will end their career with the most wins?
Number of races might help the youngsters but as mentioned the BC won't. If it works as intended and we get a more competitive F1 then those records will stand for all time because it could be so unlikely that a team stays dominant long enough for one driver in the future to benefit to the extent ne...

Okay I hadn't seen this but now I'm putting Sainz in the mix. Admittedly I just assumed he'd benefited from others misfortune but that's a ballsy couple of moves and his stints were very consistent. Good effort.
