With seven of 21 races remaining on the 2018 Formula 1 schedule, how do the sport’s 20 drivers rank against one another?
Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport’s Lewis Hamilton earned a shocking win in the Italian Grand Prix even after Scuderia Ferrari teammates Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel locked out the front row in qualifying. Hamilton’s victory is his sixth of the 21-race 2018 season and the 68th of his Formula 1 career.
After Vettel beat all drivers to one, two, three and four victories this season, Hamilton has responded by securing his fifth and sixth victories ahead of Vettel, who secured his fifth victory of the season in the previous race, the Belgian Grand Prix.
Hamilton’s victory in the 53-lap race around the 11-turn, 3.600-mile (5.793-kilometer) Autodromo Nazionale Monza road course in Monza, Italy came after he passed Raikkonen with nine laps remaining, preventing the 2007 Formula 1 champion from becoming the fifth different driver to win a race so far this season.
Aside of Hamilton and Vettel, Aston Martin Red Bull Racing teammates Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen are still the only two drivers who have won at least one race so far this season. Ricciardo has earned two victories and Verstappen has earned one in 2018.
