Bahrain Grand Prix Winners & History

Circuit Record Holders & Grand Prix History

Lewis Hamilton stands as the Bahrain Grand Prix’s most decorated driver, securing five victories for Mercedes between 2014 and 2021. His closest rival is Sebastian Vettel, who claimed four wins split between his time at Red Bull and Ferrari. Other multiple winners on the Sakhir roll of honour include three-time victor Fernando Alonso, and double-winners Max Verstappen and Felipe Massa, representing a select group of drivers who have mastered the desert circuit.

Ferrari is the most successful constructor in the event’s history, accumulating seven wins from the inaugural race in 2004 through to 2022. Mercedes follows closely with six triumphs, all achieved during the turbo-hybrid era from 2014 to 2021. Red Bull Racing also established its own periods of dominance, securing four victories across different regulatory cycles. The 2025 win by Oscar Piastri added McLaren to the list of triumphant constructors at the venue.

The Grand Prix’s narrative began with a Michael Schumacher victory for Ferrari in 2004, preceding an era marked by Fernando Alonso and Renault. Sebastian Vettel and Red Bull then asserted their authority before the start of profound Mercedes and Lewis Hamilton supremacy. The post-2022 technical regulations reshuffled the competitive order, with wins for Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc and Red Bull’s Max Verstappen before McLaren’s Oscar Piastri delivered a breakthrough success in 2025.
