31 circuits – Lewis Hamilton

Lewis Hamilton sits well ahead of anyone else in the list of F1 drivers who have won at the greatest number of different circuits. Hamilton has won at no fewer than 31 circuits during his time in Formula 1 – eight more than any other driver in the sport’s history.

The Hungaroring and Silverstone are the circuits at which Hamilton has won the most frequently, With eight wins at each of those tracks, he’s one short of setting a new record for the most victories at a single circuit.

During Hamilton’s time in Formula 1, the sport has visited 37 different circuits – meaning there are only six at which he has not won. Those circuits are: Buddh International Circuit, Korea International Circuit, Magny Cours, Miami International Autodrome, Valencia Street Circuit and Zandvoort.

25 – Max Verstappen

Max Verstappen has risen up the list of most circuits at which a driver has won in recent years. In 2023, he added another four circuits to his winning collection and, at the 2023 Qatar Grand Prix, overtook Michael Schumacher for second on the list of most circuits at which an F1 driver has won.

Since his first win in the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, Verstappen has added victories at a further 24 circuits. The Red Bull Ring and Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez are the tracks at which Verstappen has won most frequently, with five wins in Austria and four in Mexico.

Having taken his first Bahrain Grand Prix victory at the season-opening event in 2023, his first Australian Grand Prix at the third round of the year, his first win in Qatar at Lusail Circuit in October and his first win in Las Vegas at the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix in November, there are now just two circuits on the 2024 calendars at which Verstappen has not won: Shanghai International Circuit and Marina Bay Street Circuit.

Michael Schumacher’s final victory at the 2006 Chinese Grand Prix was his only win at Shanghai International Circuit. The Chinese track became the 23rd circuit at which Schumacher won during his illustrious career, setting a new record for the most circuits at which a driver had won.

Magny Cours is the circuit at which Schumacher took the most victories, winning the French Grand Prix a record eight times during his career. In Schumacher’s winning period in Formula 1, between 1992 and 2006, there were only five circuits at which Schumacher did not win: Adelaide, Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, Donington, Istanbul and Kyalami.

22 – Alain Prost

Alain Prost’s win at the 1988 Mexican Grand Prix saw him usurp Niki Lauda from the top spot of most circuits at which a driver had won in Formula 1. Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez became the 16th track at which Prost was victorious.

Prost held the record for most circuits at which a driver won for 18 years, until it was broken by Michael Schumacher at the 2006 Chinese Grand Prix. Silverstone and Jacarepagua were the tracks at which Prost most frequently won, taking five victories apiece at those tracks.

21 – Sebastian Vettel

Sebastian Vettel never quite held the record for most venues at which a driver has won, falling two short of compatriot Michael Schumacher and one shy of Alain Prost. Vettel claimed victory at 21 tracks between 2008 and 2015 – his victories after 2015 were all at circuits where he had won before.

The Marina Bay Circuit in Singapore was Vettel’s most successful track. He won the Singapore Grand Prix five times throughout his career. Fittingly, his final career victory was taken on the streets of Singapore in 2019.
