Great Britain has a proud F1 history and here, RacingNews365 takes a look back at the most successful drivers from the country.
Last season, the national anthem for Great Britain and Northern Ireland was not played on the F1 winner’s podium due to victories by drivers from other countries. British drivers have a rich history in the sport, with Nigel Mansell being one of the most successful. Mansell has the second most race victories, third most pole positions, and second most podiums of any British driver. Graham Hill, part of the first father-son World Championship-winning dynasty, also had a successful career with 14 race wins and 13 pole positions. Jim Clark, considered by many as one of the best drivers in F1 history, had two championships and 25 race victories before his tragic death. Jackie Stewart, known for his work on safety in the sport, won three World Championships and had 27 race victories. Lewis Hamilton, a seven-time World Champion, is one of the most successful British drivers and has matched Michael Schumacher’s record in terms of titles won.
