Bottom post of the previous page:
Felipe Massa has finished in the points at 50% of the Brazilian GPs following his retirement and has cried at 100% of them.
Since Lewis Hamilton became a 4-time world champion, both Felipe Massa and Rubens Barrichello have appeared on the podium more times than Lewis.

- Schumacher won Button's first race, Button won Schumacher's last
- Jones won Prost's first race, Prost won Jones' last

The first turbocharged winner of an F1 race was a French driver in a French car.
The first winner of the new turbocharged era of F1 was a German driver in a German car.

But Jabouille clinched it at home in France, at a time where there were no other turbo cars.
Also Jabouille was considered a good testing driver but a weak racing driver. I guess he disproved his critics there and then.
