2013 starts with youngest F1 grid in history
Start grid 2006 UK F1 GP
This year’s F1 grid is the very youngest in the history of the sport.
That is the finding of Spain’s AS sports newspaper, having calculated the average age of the drivers on the Melbourne grid this weekend at just over 27 years.
The statistic has been boosted for 2013 by the retirement of 44-year-old Michael Schumacher, making 36-year-old Australian Mark Webber now the oldest driver in F1.
Also helping is the arrival of youngsters including Esteban Gutierrez, Max Chilton (both 21) Valtteri Bottas and Jules Bianchi (both 22).
