How is that those two were basically a lap ahead of everybody else. The cars may be better but not by this much. Crazy.

They are at least 8 tenths to a second faster per lap, over 60+ laps, it adds up...

Schumacher helmet to Lewis was a nice way of marking the occasion.

Its a massive token of respect and honour, well playing Schumi people.

​

Schumacher

Why does it say 1 constructor for Lewis? Didn't he win at Mclaren?

Mclaren Mercedes, but agree, it's a different constructor. Merc were the engine supplier.

Your stats are confusing. If you mean that Hamilton won his races with 1 engine supplier, then Michael should be listed with 3: Ford, Renault and Ferrari.

What @Hamster is trying to say is that it took the support of 3 teams for Schumi to set that record, but Hamilton only needed two. That makes him 33% better.
