Formula 1 Racer, Lewis Hamilton makes history for the most podium finishes after his recent Space Grand Prix win.
Lewis Hamilton became the most successful F1 driver after his recent Spanish Grand Prix win. He overtook German legend Michael Schumacher and made history to have the most podium finishes in his name. Lewis extended his championship lead to 37 points and clinching an 88th career victory moving ahead of Michael Schumacher’s Formula One record. He stands with a total of 156 points podium finishes while Michael is at 155.
This win came among the talks of whether Mercedes’ tires would face a problem in Spain’s summer heat. The concerns arose after the drivers experienced problems in the past two years. However, there seemed to be no problem as Lewis finished the race 24 seconds ahead of Max Verstappen.
