Circuit Record Holders & Grand Prix History

The recent roll of honour at the Brazilian Grand Prix is distinguished by Max Verstappen’s commanding back-to-back victories in 2023 and 2024, establishing the Red Bull driver as the period’s benchmark. His success was flanked by singular triumphs from a trio of British drivers; Lewis Hamilton and George Russell delivered wins for Mercedes in 2021 and 2022 respectively, before Lando Norris piloted his McLaren to the top step in 2025, ensuring four different drivers tasted victory in five seasons.

From a constructor’s perspective, the data reveals a fierce contest for supremacy at Interlagos. A stark power struggle is evident between Mercedes-AMG and Red Bull Racing, who each claimed two victories. Mercedes’ early success in this timeframe was directly countered by Red Bull’s subsequent winning streak. The competitive duopoly was ultimately fractured by McLaren’s 2025 win, which confirmed their return as a genuine force at the front of the grid.

This era’s competitive narrative shows a distinct evolution, transitioning from Mercedes’ control to a phase of Red Bull dominance. The competitive order then began to widen, highlighted by McLaren’s breakthrough. This trend towards a multi-team fight for honours culminated in 2026, when Charles Leclerc secured a celebrated victory for Scuderia Ferrari, signalling the start of yet another competitive chapter in the Grand Prix’s modern history.
