With six races remaining on the 2018 Formula 1 schedule, how do the sport’s 10 full-time teams stack up against one another?
Four-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton delivered Mercedes-AMG Petronas Motorsport their seventh victory of the 21-race 2018 Formula 1 season in the season’s 15th race, the Singapore Grand Prix, at Marina Bay Street Circuit.
All seven of Mercedes’ seven victories so far this season have been earned by the 33-year-old Briton, as his teammate, Valtteri Bottas, has not won a race since he won last year’s season finale, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Hamilton’s victory gives Mercedes a two-victory lead over Scuderia Ferrari with six races remaining in the 2018 season. Ferrari have earned five victories so far this season, and all five of them have been earned by four-time Formula 1 champion Sebastian Vettel.

Vettel’s teammate, Kimi Raikkonen, has not won a race since returning to Ferrari in the 2014 season. He earned his most recent victory in the 2013 Australian Grand Prix in his second and final season driving for Lotus.
Hamilton’s victory also means that Aston Martin Red Bull Racing are still the only team to have both of their drivers win at least one race this season. Daniel Ricciardo won the Chinese Grand Prix and the Monaco Grand Prix while Max Verstappen won the Austrian Grand Prix earlier this season.
Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull Racing have now combined to win each of the last 112 races. Raikkonen’s Australian Grand Prix victory driving for Lotus in the 2013 season is still the most recent victory earned by a driver driving for a team other than one of these three teams.
