F1 Driver Records – Wins and Starts– HARD

In the following quiz, there are 220 individual answers and 85 different Drivers.
These pertain to various groupings of records I deemed more relevant and well known for a quiz.
I have added several hints to each answer as an aid.
All values and rankings are as of July 2024 – following the British Grand Prix, prior to the Hungarian Grand Prix.
Answers must correspond to the highlighted "yellow" box.
Drivers who are currently racing – attributed blue cell.
A quizzable representation of the F1 Driver Records for Wins and Stars.

Notes
 
 
Note 1: ***** entered 52 separate races and started 51 of them, but in 7 Grands Prix (the 1950 Italian,
1951 French, 1953 Belgian, 1953 Swiss, 1956 Argentine, 1956 Monaco and 1956 Italian) shared five
cars (all mentioned but 1950 Italian and 1953 Belgian) with other drivers which would reduce his win
percentage to 41.38%.
Note 2: ***** entered 33 separate races and started 32 of them, but in 3 Grands Prix (the 1950 Italian,
1951 French and 1953 German) shared three drives with 1 additional car (in latter with Luigi Villoresi)
which would reduce his percentages to 37.14%.
Note 3: Some sources extend *****'s sequence to nine wins, including the subsequent 1953 Dutch and
Belgian Grands Prix and discounting the intervening 1953 Indianapolis 500, given very few European
drivers competed in the Indianapolis 500 when it was part of the Drivers' Championship.
Note 4: This driver won the 1959 United States Grand Prix in the first season (1959) in which he drove
a Formula One car, but he had entered in two championship races in the 1958 season, driving a Formula
Two car on both occasions.
Note 5: ***** began racing in Grands Prix in 1948 – before the first World Championship.
Note 6: ***** began racing in Grands Prix in the 1930s – before the first World Championship.
Note 7: The Indianapolis 500 was a round of the World Drivers' Championship 11 times (1950–1960).
Drivers competing in the Indianapolis 500 throughout these years were credited with participation in a
World Championship race and the top five finishers were credited with World Championship points.
Note 8: A year after the victory, Renault were charged by the Federation Internationale de l'Automobile
(FIA) with race fixing, which led to the team's suspended disqualification; however, the original results
were left in place.
