Most pole positions without an F1 title

This record is currently held by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valtteri Bottas, who scored 20 pole positions across his five-year stint wiꦫth Mercedes between 2017 and 2021.

Bottas was unable to mount a credible title charge alongside Hamiltonജ, finishing runner-up in 2019 and 2020.

Leclerc currently has 18 pole positions, scoring half oꦯf them in 2022.

It’s fair to say that Leclerc is probably F1’s best qualifier at the moment, particularly with how he executes his laps in Q3💜.

If Ferrari are anywhere near as competitive as ꧅they were last year in this upcoming seꦉason, it’s very likely that he will overtake Bottas.

However, if Lec꧅lerc wins the title come Abu Dhabi, it will be Bottas’ onc🌳e again.

Most points without an F1 win

F1 returnee 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Nico Hulkenberg currently has the record for the m𝐆ost p♈oints scored - 521 - without a victory.

Ahead of 2023, Norris h🎉as scored 428 points across his F1ꦚ career.

Ultimately, if Norris outscored Hulkenberg by 94 points, and fails to t꧅ake his maiden F1 grand prix victory, the record wi꧑ll go the McLaren driver.

Most podiums without an F1 win

Former BMW and Lotus driver Nick Heidfeld takes 🌠this one with 13 career podiums without a win.

Norris is c🎉urrently on six podi🌌ums - seven fewer than the German.

Given that Norris has only s🔜cored six 🍷podiums in his entire career up until the point, it’s unlikely this one will leave Heidfeld just yet.
