As the battle rages between Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton to win the championship, Motors Inside is sharing with you the important figures of the mid-season before the resumption.<\/p>\n<h2>Number of races won<\/h2>\n<p>Although Lewis Hamilton is leading the championship, Max Verstappen is leading in terms of the number of Grand Prix wins this season. The Dutch driver is greatly helped by a car that is more efficient and reliable than the Mercedes. It is worth noting that only two other drivers have won a race, including the Frenchman Esteban Ocon in Hungary. Red Bull leads in the number of races won with its two drivers (6), while Mercedes is struggling behind (4). Only the French team Alpine has won a race.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-responsive\">\n<table class=\"table\">\n<tr>\n<td><strong><\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Driver(s)<\/td>\n<td>Victoire(s)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>1<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Max Verstappen<\/td>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>2<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Lewis Hamilton<\/td>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>3<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Sergio Perez<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>4<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Esteban Ocon<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Number of podiums<\/h2>\n<p>Who will take the lead this weekend? So far, Hamilton and Verstappen are unable to separate themselves. The Briton, behind throughout the start of the season, has managed to catch up to his rival. Two French drivers have reached the podium. Pierre Gasly finished third in Baku, while Esteban Ocon finished first in Hungary. Unlike victories in a Grand Prix, Mercedes dominates the Austrian team in terms of podiums (14). McLaren and Ferrari are fighting for third place.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-responsive\">\n<table class=\"table\">\n<tr>\n<td><strong><\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Driver(s)<\/td>\n<td>Podium(s)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>1<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Max Verstappen<\/td>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>2<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Lewis Hamilton<\/td>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>3<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Valtteri Bottas<\/td>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>4<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Lando Norris<\/td>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>5<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Sergio Perez<\/td>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>6<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Carlos Sainz<\/td>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>7<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Sebastian Vettel<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>8<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Pierre Gasly<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>9<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Charles Leclerc<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>10<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Esteban Ocon<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Number of laps in the lead<\/h2>\n<p>In this category, Red Bull outperforms its competitors. The two drivers of the team stay in the lead the longest in a race (429). Verstappen spends most of the time in the lead with 403 laps. An impressive number that shows the superiority of the Austrian team this season. Mercedes is far behind (147) and Alpine has moved ahead with Ocon&#8217;s victory (67).<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-responsive\">\n<table class=\"table\">\n<tr>\n<td><strong><\/strong><\/td>\n<td>\u00c9curie(s)<\/td>\n<td>Lap(s)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>1<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Red Bull<\/td>\n<td>429<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>2<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Mercedes<\/td>\n<td>147<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>3<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Alpine<\/td>\n<td>67<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>4<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Ferrari<\/td>\n<td>50<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>5<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Aston Martin<\/td>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The pole position<\/h2>\n<p>With his victory in the sprint race at Silverstone, Verstappen takes the lead in this category. For this ranking, only the pole position for the Sunday Grand Prix is taken into account. The one won by Hamilton for the sprint race does not count. Charles Leclerc won qualifying two consecutive times in Monaco and Baku. However, this has not allowed the Ferrari driver to win a race since the beginning of the season.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-responsive\">\n<table class=\"table\">\n<tr>\n<td><strong><\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Driver(s)<\/td>\n<td>Pole position(s)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>1<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Max Verstappen<\/td>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>2<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Lewis Hamilton<\/td>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>3<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Charles Leclerc<\/td>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>4<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Valtteri Bottas<\/td>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>During the summer break, Motors Inside had fun making <a href=\"\/f1\/actualite\/bilan\" title=\"les bilans de mi-saison\">mid-season reviews<\/a> of each team.
