    12. Schumacher in 12th, has retired more times (5 of 8 races) than any other driver.

    That's not a great stat.

    Really? Or did wiki get it from them? A shame if F1 Austin did "borrow" it and plaster their logo without giving source credit.

    You bet.

    Particularly the part where Schumacher's Monaco Ret isn't even printed in bold...Which technically is correct since he didn't start from pole position. :)

    Whoever made this chart was really sticking it to him. I swear I have nothing to do with it.


    All kidding aside, this is why statistics are relevant: We all know what happened this season and that MS' low points were often the result of bad luck. Fast forward ten or twenty years and I guarantee you that new fans of the sport who happen to look up 2012 will only see these numbers and their conclusion will be obvious.

    And if you don't believe that, just think about what you know about championships from a long time back.
