Formula 1: Driver Power Rankings after 2018 British Grand Prix

With 10 races down and 11 races to go in the 2018 Formula 1 season, how do the sport’s 20 drivers stack up against one another?

Scuderia Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel earned his fourth victory of the 2018 Formula 1 season in the season’s 10th race. The win was his second in the last four races and the 51st of his Formula 1 career. He is now tied with Alain Prost for third place on the all-time Formula 1 wins list.

Vettel’s fourth victory of the season came in the British Grand Prix, a race that the four-time Formula 1 champion had not won since the 2009 season. He won a very eventful 52-lap race around the 18-turn, 3.661-mile (5.891-kilometer) Silverstone Circuit in Silverstone (part Northamptonshire and part Buckinghamshire), England, United Kingdom.

By winning the British Grand Prix, Vettel became the first driver to win four races so far this season. Three other drivers have combined to win the other six races that have taken place in 2018.

Those three drivers are Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsports’ Lewis Hamilton and Aston Martin Red Bull Racing’s Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen. Hamilton has earned three victories so far this season, while Ricciardo has earned two and Verstappen has earned one.

Of the six drivers on the sport’s top three teams, which are Ferrari, Mercedes and Red Bull Racing, two are still searching for victories this season. Mercedes’ Valtteri Bottas last won a race when he won the 2017 season finale, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, and Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen last won a race when he won the 2013 season opener, the Australian Grand Prix, when he was still driving for Lotus.
