Michael Schumacher's Record in Formula 1
Michael Schumacher holds the joint record for most Formula 1 championships won with Lewis Hamilton. Lewis Hamilton came close to breaking Michael Schumacher’s record of winning seven drivers’ championships during the 2021 season.
Schumacher had named a driver he would be 'happy' to see break his record, but unfortunately, they didn't come close to winning seven championships before retiring.
- Lewis Hamilton has won seven championships, equaling Schumacher's record.
- Max Verstappen has won four titles and could potentially add to his tally this season.
There's still a chance that Verstappen could add to his tally this season, although he would need to overturn Oscar Piastri's 63-point lead during the final six race weekends.
Schumacher competed against notable opponents, including Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna, who won seven titles between them, and Nigel Mansell, who won a championship the year after Schumacher's debut.
