None of the 21 Formula 1 drivers listed by Business Book GP should use a specialized organization for consumer credit. Business Book GP has just revealed exclusively before the publication of its next guide the salaries that F1 drivers will receive during the season which will start on March 16 in Australia, in Melbourne. So, the lowest paid this season (excluding advertising contracts) will be the Brazilian Gabriel Bortoleno of the Stake Sauber Ferrari team whose emoluments are estimated in 2025 at 1.2 million euros for the season!
Hamilton, as usual
As often, not to say as always, at the top of this ranking we find the Briton Lewis Hamilton, new recruit for Ferrari, who finished the 2025 season masterfully with an anthology overtaking, whose salary estimated in 2025 by Business Book GP, and relayed by the specialized site Sportune, is… 80 million euros ! An amount, as we have said, which does not take into account the various individual contracts of the driver, nor the bonuses received in the event of GP victory(s) nor, obviously, a possible world champion title. Charles Leclerc, the teammate of the seven-time world champion, would almost be pitiful with his 26 million… Finally, note that the first French driver in this ranking is Pierre Gasly, the Alpine driver being credited with an annual salary of 10 million for the 2025 season.
