Must be the first ever wet race to have zero retirements?

Unless you include 2021 at Spa.

    It wouldn't be changing the cars just for one track. Hungary, Jeddha, Barcelona, Singapore, Miami, Suzuka, Imola all have problems delivering overtaking. You would improve the racing across the board.

  • I looked into this. These are the only races with no DNFs Even if you discount Belgium 2021 there's still Turkey. This also highlights the ridiculous reliability since the mid 2010's compared to prev

1961 Dutch GP being the wild outlier there!

As much as chaotic races are entertaining I do like this era when reliability issues are less common as it makes for a much more fair title fight based more on ability and not sheer luck.

The 1961 Dutch GP is also one of only 2 in history where no driver made a pitstop. The other? Belgium 2021

Wasn't it Mika Salo who had no pitstops and finished fifth at the 1997 Monaco Grand Prix?

Yes. Ocon did it recently too at Turkey 2021, Scored a point
