To be fair he was never in a really bad car, and this does in part show the huge effect machinery has on results in F1. Still, the consistency to almost never put in a stinker or have a poor qualy and fail to make it up on the Sunday is really worth highlighting.

Incredible that his first 104 races were all wins

For comparison, Max Verstappen has finished outside of the top 10 only five times: four of them in his first season (with Toro Rosso) and one in his second season (in a Red Bull).

2.6% for Lewis 2.5% for Max

Still impressive, but less races though.

He has some absolutely unreal stats. Of course, he was in the right team at the right time often, but you can absolutely never count the guy out

Absolutely, he also got himself in the right teams
