Points very much mean prizes in F1, and while they are given to more places than ever before, they are still the sport's key currency.
F1 records: The drivers with the longest points-scoring streaks in historyLewis Hamilton is flanked by Sebastian Vettel and Max Verstappen on the podium. Chinese Grand Prix 2017.
With that in mind, here is a look at the longest points-scoring streaks in the history of F1 to date.Coming back after retiring in Austria, ending what would be the second-longest F1 points streak ever , a flying Hamilton and Mercedes took second place behind Sebastian Vettel’s Ferrari as the 2018 title race really heated up.
But Hamilton’s retirement in Malaysia left him 23 points behind Rosberg, and while his 33-race points streak started with four wins from the final five races of the year, it was not enough to take another title. That P1 at Imola has sparked a quite frankly ridiculous run of 27 victories from 35 races, a win rate of 77.1%. Gulp.Anyone worried about Kimi Raikkonen’s form after taking a two-year break from Formula 1 need not have been too concerned, as it seemed none of his pace disappeared in his time away.
Driving Ferrari cars which were reliable beyond their years compared to the rest of the field, as well as mightily quick, Schumi was able to notch up 14 victories and six further second-place finishes in this remarkable 24-race span, with the standout 2002 season being his most dominant up to that point in his already legendary career.
He bounced back from retirement in Montreal by finishing each of the final 12 races of 2011 in the top five, and while there were some finishes in the minor placings among his early wins in 2012, they all still counted towards his streak before a flying Romain Grosjean clattered over the top of his Ferrari heading down to the first corner at Spa.
This constant building of points helped Verstappen to fourth in the World Championship in 2018, and his retirement in Belgium in 2019 to end this streak was one of only two DNFs that year, as he finished in the top three in the Drivers’ standings for the first time.
