   Three drivers made their in-race debuts in 2023.  Lawson and Sargeant   
   had each previously appeared F1 in practice sessions; Piastri had not,   
   although he had had 1-day tests with Alpine and McLaren.  If any of the   
   three was a "rookie" it was Piastri; I'd count all three, with Piastri   
   obviously RotY.
