Lewis Hamilton has 106 career Formula One wins, the most in the sport’s history. Michael Schumacher is second to Hamilton, with 91 career wins.
Some of Hamilton’s notable F1 wins include:
- 1: Hamilton won his first F1 race on June 10, 2007, at the Canadian Grand Prix. It was only his sixth start in F1. Racing for McLaren, he won three more times that season.
- 22: Hamilton won his first race driving for Mercedes on July 28, 2013, at the Hungarian Grand Prix.
- 73: Hamilton won the final race of the 2018 season at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on November 25. It was his 11th win in a 21-race season, after he had clinched his fifth drivers’ championship two races earlier. He stripped down during his podium celebration to show off his “Still I Rise” tattoo: “it’s a poem out there [by Maya Angelou], please go and read it because it applies to anyone who’s stumbling and falling,” he said later.
- 92: Hamilton surpassed Schumacher’s record for the most career F1 wins with a victory on October 25, 2020, at the Portuguese Grand Prix. “Did I think we would win this many races? Of course not,” he said after the race. “The great thing is that it’s not just me that is living with the history, it’s the whole team.” Later that year, Hamilton won his seventh drivers’ championship, tying Schumacher for the most in the sport.
- 104: Hamilton won the British Grand Prix on July 7, 2024. The victory was his first since 2021, and it was his ninth British Grand Prix win, setting a record for the most at any single grand prix. It also followed by several months his announcement that he would be leaving Mercedes after 12 seasons to join Ferrari. “That might be the most emotional ending to a race I think I have probably ever had,” Hamilton said.
- 106: Hamilton scored his first grand prix victory for Ferrari, winning at Barcelona on June 14, 2026.
