https://api.jolpi.ca/ergast/f1/current/drivers.json

Each driver object is in the format
{ "driverId": "albon", "permanentNumber": "23", "code": "ALB", "url": ["http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Albon"](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Albon), "givenName": "Alexander", "familyName": "Albon", "dateOfBirth": "1996-03-23", "nationality": "Thai" },

It would be good to have constructor information in this object.

I'd love your contribution, however the plan is to not add any functionality to the ergast compatible api. Instead we want to add any new functionality to brand new endpoints, which will hopefully simplify using the API, align more with our database structure, and follow best practices for the Django Rest Framework
This is planned for just after the start of the new season after we have finalised data ingest automation.

Before then however we'd be happy to accept any help with fixing any differences to ergast.
