#makes you wonder how the few Finns achieve high statistics
Text
As a continuation of my Finns in F1 post, what about Spain?
There has always been a Spanish F1 driver since 1999 (Some drivers may come up multiple times due to multiple stints in F1)
Marc Gené (1999-2000)
Pedro de la Rosa (1999-2002)
Fernando Alonso (2001-2018)
Marc Gené (2003-2004)
Pedro de la Rosa (2005-2006)
Jaime Alguersuari (2009-2011)
Pedro de la Rosa (2010-2012)
Roberto Menhi (2015)
Carlos Sainz (2015-Current day)
Fernando Alonso (2021-Current day)
There have been 15 drivers from Spain. Between the 15 of them is 121 podiums, 33 wins, 25 pole positions, 27 fastest laps, and 2 WDC
Interestingly, the only thing the Spanish have over the Finns is amount of drivers.
Fernando Alonso is responsible for 32 wins, 104 podiums, 22 poles, 23 fastest laps, and 2 WDC.
5 of the drivers did multiple sints in F1, Pedro is the only one who had 3 F1 stints.
#Carlos is second most successful#makes you wonder how the few Finns achieve high statistics#maybe it's hard for the Finns to get the funding for a drive#so the ones that do get funding tend to be extremely good#fernando alonso#carlos sainz#pedro de la rosa#roberto merhi#Jaime Alguersuari#Marc Gené#Spain#F1
