On the 17th March in Melbourne the 2013 Grand Prix season turn on its ignition for another years’ worth of exciting wheel to wheel action. With 22 drivers lining up on the starting grid HostelBookers have created the reason why they believe Britain will rule the championship this year. Throughout history Britain has collected the most championship, won the most races and set the fastest laps. They have also produced 19% of the entire field of grand prix drivers whilst claiming 14 world titles. Most interestingly they see Lewis Hamilton taking part this season in a German manufactured car, but the last British driver to win in a German car was the legendary Sterling Moss in 1955, at the British Grand Prix. So the British will need to cross their fingers for Hamilton this year. So not only have the British provided the most win but for fans of action and incidents, the British are accountable for 17.5% of accidents, crashes and spin offs.

So that is why the British are going to rule the track this season. For more stats check out our blog.
