Belgian Grand Prix Winners & History

Circuit Record Holders & Grand Prix History

Michael Schumacher’s six victories, achieved with Benetton and Ferrari, establish him as the definitive master of the Belgian Grand Prix. His record surpasses the five wins apiece of two other titans, Ayrton Senna and Lewis Hamilton, whose successes were primarily secured during dominant spells with McLaren and Mercedes, respectively. The roll of honour also recognizes Kimi Räikkönen’s special affinity for the circuit with four triumphs, and the hat-tricks of success claimed by Max Verstappen, Sebastian Vettel, and Damon Hill.

The constructor’s battle reflects a long-standing rivalry, with McLaren holding a narrow edge over Ferrari for the most team victories. Their sustained presence at the front is a constant through decades of technical change. While Team Lotus defined an earlier period, the modern era has been shaped by the ascendancy of Red Bull Racing and Mercedes, both of whom have assembled significant winning streaks to challenge the established order and build their own formidable legacies at the venue.

The Grand Prix’s timeline tracks a clear evolution of dominance. After the 1960s success of Jim Clark and Lotus, the honour roll diversified before Ayrton Senna and McLaren claimed the late 1980s. Michael Schumacher’s reign followed, challenged by Williams before Kimi Räikkönen’s run of victories. The 2010s saw a multipolar contest between Red Bull, Mercedes, and McLaren, which gave way to a Max Verstappen hat-trick in the early 2020s. Subsequent wins by Lewis Hamilton and Oscar Piastri preceded Andrea Kimi Antonelli’s landmark 2026 triumph with Mercedes.
