Key figures to remember about the 2024 Formula 1 season
The 2024 season was one of the most competitive. Both for the win and for the podiums. Here are some statistics to summarize it.

7: The number of different winners this season. This is a record since 2012, when eight men won Grand Prix races. Max Verstappen, Lando Norris, Oscar Piastri, Charles Leclerc, Carlos Sainz, Lewis Hamilton, and George Russell have all crossed the finish line first twice. This is a first in history. Never before have so many drivers achieved two victories in a single season.
10: The number of drivers who stood on the podium in 2024. In addition to the seven winners, Sergio Perez, Esteban Ocon, and Pierre Gasly must be added.
26: The number of years of drought for McLaren. The Woking team won its first constructors’ title since 1998.
57: The number of Grand Prix races it took for Lewis Hamilton to reconnect with success. Between Jeddah 2021 and Silverstone 2024, this represents 57 races.
246: With the separation between Mercedes and Lewis Hamilton, the series of 246 Grand Prix between a driver and his constructor has ended. It was the longest relationship in history. Max Verstappen, with 186 races with Red Bull, will soon be in a position to break this record.
24: While twenty drivers were initially engaged this season, ultimately 24 participated in a race. Oliver Bearman, Jack Doohan, Franco Colapinto, and Liam Lawson joined the adventure during the season or to replace another driver. Only the Alpine driver did not finish in the points.
63: With his nine victories in 2024, Max Verstappen has reached 63 in Formula 1. That’s ten more than Sebastian Vettel, but 28 fewer than Michael Schumacher.
2: Max Verstappen is the second youngest four-time world champion in history. At 27 years, 1 month, and 24 days. Sebastian Vettel was nearly a year younger when he captured his fourth crown in 2013: 26 years, 3 months, 24 days.
0: In addition to saving Alpine’s season, Pierre Gasly did not cost his team a single cent due to an accident or a collision. This is a first since 1950.
1: For the first time since Romain Grosjean in 2012, a driver was unable to participate in a race due to a suspension. Kevin Magnussen accumulated a total of 12 penalty points on his Super License within 12 months. He reached this total after several sanctions in Italy, preventing him from taking part in the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
10,000: Ferrari has surpassed the symbolic milestone of 10,000 points scored in Grand Prix. The Italian team currently has 10,324.
2: Max Verstappen has achieved two hat-tricks this season, which means obtaining pole position, the victory, and the fastest lap in the race. He now has a total of 13 and is only six behind Lewis Hamilton, who is in second place.
1: Among these hat-tricks, the Dutchman achieved a grand slam, which means that in addition to the pole position, the victory, and the fastest lap, he led the entire Grand Prix. It was in Bahrain.
5: The Chinese Grand Prix returned to the calendar for the first time since 2019, marking five years without a single race. COVID-19 is the reason for the cancellation of all these editions.
0: This season, none of the McLaren drivers have been classified as « retired » during a main race. They have finished all of them. Despite his withdrawal in Austria, Lando Norris is officially 7 laps behind George Russell, the winner.
