This quiz will have questions about random drivers. How? Let me explain. I will use http://www.random.org's integer generator to pick a ? number that is appropriate to the next task. Using the lists on http://www.statsf1.com/en/statistiques/pilote.aspx, I will then equate the number to the appropriate driver on the list for these 10 credentials:

1. Wins 2. Poles 3. Fastest Laps 4. Points 5. Podiums 6. Laps led 7. Grand Prix led 8. #GPs 9. # seasons 10. Av. grid position.

Understand? Care? Well, anyway, here we go!

Albers with 46

Piero Scotti? That was always likely!
 
Seems to be common result but 6 for me.

I'm assuming we all got the same questions right. Personal best for me as well. :chuffed:
