* M.Schumacher's 65th pole position in Bahrain his 233th Grand Prix start, matched the number of Ayrton Senna's pole record:
A.Senna conquered 65 pole positions, in 162 Grand Prix starts
1 Raced up to the San Marino Grand Prix, then relocated to a test role, exclusively. Finally, shortly before the Spanish GP, as his superlicence was withdrawn by the FIA, it was reported that Ide would no longer be lining up for the Super Aguri team, this Season.
2 Promoted to Yuji Ide's race seat at the Nürbürgring. Franck Montagny is the 1st French driver to line up, since Olivier Panis retired from racing.
3 Promoted to Franck Montagny's race seat at Hockenheim, Sakon Yamamoto is Yuji Ide's Japanese replacement at the Super Aguri team, after Franck Montagny had filled in the seat for seven GP's.
4 Juan Pablo Montoya announced that, in 2007, he will be leaving F1, to be reunited with Chip Ganassi, his former Champ Car boss, now in the Ganassi 42 Dodge racing the popular American NASCAR Series. The July 9 news of Montoya's switching F1 for Nascar was immediately followed by an announcement from McLaren (July 11) that the Colombian's departure from his racing seat
would be effective right away. The Team took the care to add that Montoya's immediate departure was both in the driver's and the Team's interest. Montoya's last F1 race was at Indianapolis, a track where the Colombian driver has won the famous Indy 500 race.
5 Promoted to Juan Pablo Montoya's race seat at Magny-Cours. Team test driver Pedro de la Rosa has been initially announced as Juan Pablo Montoya's replacement at McLaren, for the foreseeable future. In other words, the McLaren Team might hand the seat to another driver, before the Season is over, presumably 
Gary Paffet, their other test driver.
Though having also qualified fifth, Pedro de la Rosa's best grid position was a fourth place inherited from Jenson Button, at 2006 the GP of Hungary, due to the 10-place demotion penalty that an engine change earned the Honda driver. Fifth, however, the number corresponding to Pedro de la Rosa's actual qualifying efforts, is the number figuring in the Spanish driver's data, above.
6 Robert Kubica replaced reportedly physically unfit Jacques Villeneuve in the Hungaroring.
Kubica remarkably finished his debut GP in P7, a place that would have earned him 2 points. But his car was later disqualified, thus the two points taken away from him. See the page for the Hungarian GP.
