The 2023 Formula 1 season has seen a significant number of crashes, with nearly three-quarters of the season completed. These crashes have put immense pressure on drivers, especially with the budget cap in place. A Reddit user named basspro23chevy compiled a list of the top 10 drivers causing the most crash damage, taking into account the costs incurred by both drivers and teams. Topping the list is Logan Sargeant of Williams, who has accumulated almost $4 million in damages. Lance Stroll, who has struggled compared to his teammate Fernando Alonso, sits in second place. Lewis Hamilton, despite a challenging season for Mercedes, has managed to keep his crashes to a minimum, with costly incidents in Miami, Monaco, and Spain. Surprisingly, Max Verstappen, who is on his way to a third F1 World Championship, sits at the bottom of the list with damages totaling $200,000. These damages include incidents such as a collision with George Russell during the Baku Sprint race.
