Drivers' 'to-win' list

Post

Winning the race last weekend, both Sebastian Vettel and Red Bull Racing could finally cross the Canadian Grand Prix of their to-do list. This made me wonder, which races have 'the big 4' yet to win?

Of the 19 Grand Prix this year...
...Sebastian Vettel has won all but the German, Hungarian and US Grand Prix.
...Fernando Alonso has won all but the Belgian, Indian, Abu Dhabi, Brazilian and US Grand Prix.
...Kimi Räikkönen has won all but the Bahrain, German, Italian, Singapore and US Grand Prix.*
...Lewis Hamilton has won all but the Malaysia, Bahrain, Spanish, Korean, Indian or Brazilian Grand Prix.

*Kimi has also not yet won in Korea or India, but last year was his first race there.

Are we talking countries or circuits here?

Countries.
Circuits you'd get a long list of single entries for that driver that he'll never be able to check off again (A1 ring, Indy)

Nothing too much to read into this list, just made it and thought I'd share.

Wow, I didn't realised Seb never won the Hungarian GP until now. It's one of the circuits the competition highlights in their calender as "damage control".

Hungary is kind of an odd one for Vettel:
2008: technical DNF after qualifying 11th in Toro Rosso
2009: suspension faillure after qualifying 2nd
2010: lost near-certain win after safety car mix-up
2011: rainy lotery
2012: RB simply lacked the speed

While not his strongest track, he doesn't seem to really perform badly there, but it seems there's always something weird happening. Same for Canada though, so who knows :)
