"50 races without points Bearman was the 776th driver in the sport's history to start a race and the 352nd to score points. Most of the other [---] drivers dropped out early but one completed [--] races without scoring a point. He is Luca Badoer who won the Formula [----] championship in [----] a field that included Rubens Barrichello and David Coulthard. After that however he was usually at the back of the grid for Scuderia Italia Forti and then Minardi. In the chaotic [----] European Grand Prix however he was on the verge of a major breakthrough finishing fourth but having to retire due to a technical"

"It was a race but not a competition The most recent addition to the list is the [----] Belgian Grand Prix which has become the shortest ever in terms of kilometres driven. The race was due to start at 3pm but rain delayed the start. After [--] minutes two lead-up laps were run followed by the red flag and several hours of waiting. They then completed three laps behind the safety car before returning to the pit lane. This in turn allowed a result to be announced even if only by half a point. All this without having completed a single metre in race conditions. It is no coincidence that the rule was"

"Three pole positions but never led a lap Teo Fabi achieved the dubious feat of taking pole position three times but never completing a lap in the lead. He first started from the front grid at the [----] German Grand Prix but the Toleman's tyres spun and he dropped back to eighth place before suffering a clutch failure. A year later he took pole in Austria now with Benetton but was run off the track by team-mate Gerhard Berger. Although he retook the lead on lap [--] his engine stalled almost immediately and he was unable to cross the line. He was also fastest in qualifying at the next Italian"

"Six cars in the race The scandal at the [----] US Grand Prix will be remembered by many. On Friday Ralf Schumacher suffered a huge crash in the banked corner due to a puncture and Michelin realised that they would not be able to complete the race safely. There was talk of adding a chicane to the section in question or even a speed limit but both ideas seemed absurd. As a result at the end of the opening lap the drivers of the seven teams concerned drove into the pit lane leaving only Ferrari Jordan and Minardi who were using Bridgestone to battle it out"

"He was banned but still took part in the race In the final free practice session of the [----] Japanese Grand Prix Jacques Villeneuve was one of five drivers to ignore the yellow flag. As it was not his first time his suspension came into effect but Williams appealed and the Canadian driver was allowed to race in Suzuka. He was fifth there but was subsequently disqualified after the Grove-based team withdrew the appeal under pressure from Max Mosley then president of the FIA who had warned that Villeneuve could be in danger of being crowned the season finale in Jerez after Michael Schumacher's"

"Double points at the season finale In the [----] season the aim was to artificially increase the excitement by allowing twice as many points to be scored in the last race of the season the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix as in the other races. The gap between Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg was [--] points meaning that the latter could have won the race if his team-mate had finished third. In the end it didn't matter as the German driver's ERS failed leaving him with no chance of scoring points while Hamilton won the race and the championship. And the following year to the delight of many the double points"
