Max Verstappen arrives at the Bahrain Grand Prix looking to carry momentum from his Suzuka victory and return to the top of the drivers' standings for the first time since becoming champion last season. But what records can be broken this weekend? Most race victories
In terms of number of victories, it is Lewis Hamilton who leads the way in Bahrain. The seven-time world champion won a whopping five times on
this circuit, although his last victory dates back to 2021. There is no one
who can match Hamilton's record this year, but the Briton would certainly
like to secure his sixth win in Bahrain.
If he succeeds, he will add to Ferrari's impressive tally at the circuit. The Scuderia is the most successful in Bahrain with seven
victories. Michael Schumacher, Felipe
Massa, Fernando Alonso, Sebastian Vettel, and current Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc
have all won for the Italian team. Can Hamilton add his name to this illustrious list this year?
Max Verstappen could equal Lewis Hamilton
Hamilton may hold the record for the most
race victories in Bahrain, but Verstappen could equal a record this weekend. When it comes to the most consecutive wins on
the circuit, Hamilton holds the record with three victories. Verstappen won the last two editions in Sakhir and can level with the Ferrari driver with a victory in 2025.
Will McLaren win the Grand Prix of Bahrain?
After two race wins in three races, McLaren enters the race weekend in Bahrain as the clear favorite. However, surprisingly, the team has never won on this circuit before. If the British team succeeds, they will be the sixth team to achieve a victory in
this Grand Prix. Ferrari, Renault, Brawn, Red Bull, and Mercedes have already done so.
