On your F1 Champions list you have listed the 2008 winner as Lewis Hamilton and Ferrari. Except he was driving for McLaren. Now we know that Massa was close to winning that year, but it never happened that way
Thanks for your feedback Michael. The list behind the drivers is the team that won the constructors title.
I'm thinking about splitting them in two lists, so you can see which team the driver was driving for when he won the drivers' title.
The constructors' title list can then also be expanded with both driver names and maybe the car name.
Please let me know if you have any other suggestions or ideas.
I've already done some changes today. You can now see a separate drivers 'championship list with team and engine the driver used and constructors' championship list with the engine.
