Formula 1 statistics for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix at the Yas Marina circuit:
TITLE
Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel has already won the 2011 title as Formula 1's youngest double world champion. He is only the ninth driver to win back-to-back championships.
Red Bull have also won the constructors' title for the second year running.
WINS
Ferrari have won 216 races in F1, McLaren 174, Williams 113 and Red Bull 26. One more by Red Bull would equal Benetton's haul of 27.
Michael Schumacher holds the record for driver victories with 91. Ferrari's Fernando Alonso has the second highest total among current drivers (27) and is level with Britain's Jackie Stewart in fifth place on the all-time list.
Vettel has 21, McLaren's Lewis Hamilton 16 and team mate Jenson Button 12. Williams' Rubens Barrichello and Ferrari's Felipe Massa have 11.
Vettel has won 11 of the 17 races this season and 14 of the last 21. He must win the last two races to equal Schumacher's record for most wins in a season (13 with Ferrari in 2004).
Vettel and Schumacher (also 11 wins in 2002) are the only drivers to have won 10 or more races in a season.

PODIUM

Team Lotus, Hispania and Virgin Racing have yet to score a point since their debuts in Bahrain last year.
