Jolyon PALMER

Jolyon Palmer is a British former Formula 1 driver who competed in the sport primarily during the 2016 and 2017 seasons. Racing exclusively for Renault, Palmer participated in 37 Grands Prix without securing any wins, podiums, or pole positions. Over his career, he accumulated a total of 9 championship points.

Palmer's tenure in Formula 1 spanned a brief period within a decade-long professional racing career. Notably, he completed all his races without a single retirement, resulting in a 0.0% DNF rate, which is uncommon in the sport. His average qualifying position was 16.1, and he gained just over one position per race on average, indicating modest race pace relative to his starting grid placements.

While Palmer did not achieve significant success in terms of race results or championship standings, his consistent race finishes and ability to improve his position during races reflect a steady, if not front-running, presence in the field. His career statistics highlight the challenges faced by drivers competing for midfield teams during this era of Formula 1.
