I can see Horner is doing more visits on the podium than when he was driving in F3000

I know it is a running joke since Brundle gave him a deserved burn on live TV, but it's actually admirable. Same for Toto Wolff who started as a driver. Having the humility to understand your skillset, and courage to steer your career towards success rather than stubbornly drag your feet where you're mediocre at best, or a liability.

Ken Tyrrell also had a different approach to driving that wasn't that successful

Max Mosely used to be a driver. He was in the race that Jim Clark died in.

forgot to mention but we'll might face some rule changes after what Perez did to avoid further penalties, right

I thought that after the driver left the car he couldn't jump back in to resume the race and he did that just to serve the penalty

I know of plenty of races where the driver jumped out of the car during the race, and won! But that is besides the point.

Perez is making Mark Webber's 2011 and 2013 seasons look great by comparison.

As for Perez, the comparison with Webber that @ webbsy made is very telling. The common point between these two drivers is that they were both very experienced, rock-solid mentally, and fast enough to rack up victories and podiums (even a title in the case of Webber). Then, they went through the meat-grinder that is the second seat next to RedBull's wonderboy of the time.

It's interesting when you look at the number of 1-2s. For Max-Perez: 11 Vettel-Webber: 16 Hamilton-Bottas: 21 Hamilton-Rosberg: 30 Mercedes was arguably more dominant than Red Bull, but I think it's clear Hamilton-Rosberg pair was strongest and Max-Perez weakest (unless Perez 2.0 somehow emerges next year).

His first years were a big struggle having to develop the team with russian money (and an unknown Viktor Maslov at the wheel). But a couple of years later they were running the show despite the series weakening

Bernie Ecclestone also entered 2 F1 races but failed to qualify for both. He was quite a successful man in later years...

Zak Brown made a decent career in sportscars with United and James Vowles raced in the ALMS last year.

Which is Suzuka would be seven laps. Perez was 26 laps down. I know one case where driver jumped out of the car during the race, returned and still finished in the points. That was Martin Brundle in Monaco 1989. The battery of his car needed to be changed and they could only do that if the driver was not on his seat.

It was Brazil 1996 where it was raining heavily, Barrichello had to pit to retire, but they fixed the car and Barrichello could rejoin the race. He later said that the worst part was getting himself into his soaking wet overalls again, which means he had already changed into normal clothes . He had to retire again some laps later.
