The year in numbers
The season packed 9 races across 9 countries, with 4 different winners over 1962: Graham Hill (4), Jim Clark (3), Bruce McLaren (1), Dan Gurney (1). Graham Hill won more than anyone, 4 of the 9 races. The title went to Graham Hill (United Kingdom), driving for BRM, the first of the driver's career. On the raw sums of the table, Graham Hill closed the year on 52 points, 20 more than Bruce McLaren. A note for anyone checking official records: until 1990 the rules dropped each driver's worst results, so the raw sums in the table can differ from the official 1962 scores.
