In 18 seasons of Formula 1, Lewis Hamilton has had the time to leave his mark on this sport. A little too much time even. Impressive from his rookie year to the point of claiming the title until the last Grand Prix in Brazil in 2007 under the colors of McLaren, the Englishman then established himself as one of the greatest in history, if that is not the biggest.
As he celebrates his 40th birthday this Tuesday, January 7, 2025 and as he prepares to begin a new challenge in his career with Ferrari, his third team, the one we now call Sir Lewis Hamilton was able to establish some historic marks . The figures speak for themselves with no less than 16 records and 2 other co-held records including that of the greatest number of world titles, shared with Michael Schumacher (7).
