Since its creation Formula 1 from 1950 to the present, there are 113 drivers who have won at least one race. Many of them kissed glory for the first time, and the number of those who achieved at least 10 successes is reduced to 35. And within this group, those who celebrated consecutively stand out.
Sports news delve into the history books and list those who used to climb to the top spot weekend after weekend. Among the names appear great champions such as e.g Sebastian Vettel, Alberto Ascari, Michael Schumacher, Nico Rosberg, Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton.
What is the record for most consecutive wins in Formula 1?
From 2010 to 2013, Red Bull no contest and surrendered to Sebastian Vettel a projectile. The German won each of those seasons to claim his only four titles. In the latter, he set a record that is currently unbeatable: won 9 Grand Prix in a row. His string started in Belgium and ended in Brazil.
In the period when Vettel won everything, different drivers finished second: Fernando Alonso (3), Mark Webber (3), Kimi Raikkonen, Nico Rosberg and Romain Grosjean. In the first meeting of 2014, Rosberg got his revenge and cut his momentum. It is worth clarifying that in that season Vettel did not make it.
The Teutons snapped their 7-game hitting streak Alberto Askari (1952-1953) and Michael Schumacher (2004). Later, in 2015-2016, he will join Nico Rosberg and 2023 was added Max Verstappen, who is able to continue to expand this sector. From Miami who only knows how to win: he continued in Monaco, Spain, Canada, Austria, Great Britain and Hungary.
AND Lewis Hamilton? The seven-time world champion was never able to break the streak of five consecutive celebrations. In both 2014 and 2020 it reached that number, ending the run in the United States and Bahrain, respectively.
