In 2014, 'Formula One' introduced a driver number system whereby each driver could choose their own racing number that would stay with them throughout their 'F1' career.
Should a driver win the World Championship that year, they could choose to run with #1 on their car the following year or retain their chosen number.
When drivers retire from 'Formula One' their number is retained for two years before it is released to allow other racing drivers to use that number.
No 1 reserved for F1 World Champions
