Because the Williams of 2001 was the last car of that genre. But it didn't affect the the list of champions because 2001 Williams drivers completed their careers without a title.
The McLaren of 2012 was certainly an example of that too.
The W03, another car that was blindingly fast at times but was never going to win the WCC because of its lack of consistency.
There are various years like this when cars were capable of winning at multiple races but could never contend for the WCC over a whole year.
2-Mark won in 2009-2010-2011 and in 2012, but Vettel took all 13 victories of RBR in 2013. The stat is correct for every driver in above list. You can trust me on this one.
I am not an idiot, Need4Naiim. I know fully well who won when. I still do not agree with compiling the stat that way. It's too arbitrary. I could live with it somewhat better if it was "WCC won/lost in years when both drivers won a race", not "amount of years when both drivers won vs amount of years when the WCC was won".
You're trying to show how many times a driver drove for a team that lost a WCC when both drivers won a race - and then it should be "WCC won/lost when both drivers won a race". And then it's 75% for Vettel.
And even then it still doesn't reflect on a single driver performances.
3-It does not disadvantage the drivers who have been paired with strong racers and/or champions.
It does, because when two strong drivers are paired the count of the denominator is more likely to go up by one, but the numerator is dependent on whether the car is actually up to winning the WCC or not, and those chances are smaller than the chances of a great driver winning a race in a season.
