Michael Schumacher once named which driver he would be ‘happy’ to see break his F1 title record

Michael Schumacher's Record in F1

Michael Schumacher currently holds the joint record for most Formula 1 championships won with Lewis Hamilton.

Lewis Hamilton came within one lap of breaking Michael Schumacher’s record of winning seven drivers’ championships during the 2021 season, only to be denied by Max Verstappen.

Championship Rivals

Schumacher came up against some formidable opponents during his career, including Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna, who won seven titles between them.

Nigel Mansell also won a championship the year after Schumacher's debut.

Current Season

Max Verstappen has since joined the handful of drivers to have won four or more titles and still has a chance to add to his tally this season.

However, he would need to overturn Oscar Piastri’s 63-point lead during the final six race weekends.
