Formula 1 fans have seen drivers like Lewis Hamilton, Sebastian Vettel, Michael Schumacher, and many more rule the entire season. But what the Red Bull driver, Max Verstappen is doing in the 2024 F1 season, no fans have witnessed such mastery dominance. He has won 17 Grand Prix in the season and has only missed one podium. Moreover, he has broken every impossible record that was created by legendary drivers. Truly, his dominance is going to be remembered for decades.
Total Laps Led in the 2024 Season
- Max Verstappen: 951 laps
- Other drivers combined: 316
- Sergio Perez: 146 laps
- Carlos Sainz: 77 laps
- Charles Leclerc: 40 laps
- Lando Norris: 30 laps
- Lewis Hamilton: 13 laps
- George Russell: 6 laps
- Fernando Alonso: 3 laps
- Oscar Piastri: 1 lap
(Note: The data from the 2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is not included.)
Even if we multiply the combined total laps of other drivers by 3 (316×3 = 948), we will fall short of three laps. No other driver in Formula 1 history has dominated a season like Verstappen has done in 2024.
It feels like Verstappen is driving on a simulator with multiple cheat codes for victory. Even if you look at the drivers’ standing and the constructors’ standing, he has single-handedly defeated everyone.
In case you missed: “I’m sure Toto Wolff is plotting,” says Christian Horner
