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 posi🌟tions across his five-year stint ⛎with Mercedes between 2017 and 2021.

Bottas was unable toꦦ mount a credible title charge alongside Hamilton, finishing runner-🌱up in 2019 and 2020.

Leclerc curr𒁃ently has 18 pole positions, scoring half of them in 202🦩2.

It’s fair to say that Leclerc is probably F1’s ꦇbest qualifier at the moment, particularly with h🐲ow he executes his laps in Q3.

If Fe😼rrari are anywhere near as competitive as they were last year in this upcoming season, it’s very likely tha🥃t he will overtake Bottas.

However, if Leclerc wins the title come Abu Dhabi💦, it will be Bottas’ once 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 most points scored - 521 - without a vic𝓰tory.

Ahead of 2023, Norris has scored 428 poiꦡnts across his F1 career.

Ultimately, if Norris outscored Hulkenberg by 94 points, and fails to take his mꦅaiden F1 grand prix victory, the record will go th✱e McLaren driver.

Most podiums without an F1 win

Former BMW and Lotus driver ꧒Nick Heidfeld takes this one with 13 career podiums without a win.

Norris is currently on✤ six podiums - seven fewer than the German.

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