How it is derived

drivers.born against races.date_iso for every entry that started. An entry counts as a start unless its result is DNQ, DNPQ, DNS, DNP or EX - did not qualify, pre-qualify, start or practise, or excluded before the start - so a pit-lane start counts and so does a retirement on the first lap. value_num is the age in days. 59 such drivers have no birth date held and cannot be placed. Max Verstappen: born , started .
