Formula 1 has seen many records get broken throughout its 74-year history, however not all are positive
The 2024 F1 season has begun with pre-season testing taking place at the Bahrain International Circuit this week. Max Verstappen had a remarkable 2023, setting new records such as most wins in a season (19) and most points in a year (575). There are predictions that more records could be broken in 2024, including some potentially undesirable ones. Nico Hulkenberg is on track to break the record for most grand prix starts without a win, currently held by Andrea de Cesaris. Lando Norris is tied with Nick Heidfeld for the most podium finishes without a win in F1, with both having 13 podiums to their name. Additionally, Norris also has the opportunity to surpass Chris Amon’s record for the most laps led without a win in F1.
