P1racenews AI automatic summary:
There have been 781 F1 drivers in the world championship, as of the 2025 Abu Dhabi GP, with one having an unfortunate tag of ‘being the worst’, but that’s rather unfair.
Yuji Ide’s short-lived Formula 1 career in 2006 with Super Aguri is remembered for his lack of experience and unfortunate incidents. After his controversial involvement in accidents at the San Marino Grand Prix, the FIA revoked Ide’s super license. Despite this setback, Ide had a solid record in Formula Nippon, finishing third in 2004 and second in 2005. However, his performance in F1 was disappointing, with slow qualifying times and retirements in multiple races. Ide’s last race saw him tipping Christijan Albers upside down before retiring with suspension problems at Imola. His F1 career ended after just four races, leaving a mark as a driver who struggled to make an impact on the sport.
