A record that many thought wouldn’t be broken.

Outstanding from Lewis.

Title 7 to follow soon and he becomes statistically the best F1 driver in history.

He's not my favorite driver. I dislike his antics. But he is the best there is. Period.

The greatest driver of all times, well deserved Lewis Hamilton! 

We knew back in 2007 that he had the talent and the speed but this? 

What a ledged! 

 

 

PS: Of all 92, your favourite one? 

To me Silverstone 2008.

No. He was lucky to get into F1 just as it became 99.99% about the car.

92 and counting. Today wasn’t a heroic race but his combination of tyre management and outright pace were impecable. There are no chinks in his armor anymore.

The best make it look easy and that has never been more evident in F1.

Yeah. He will likely run away with this and next year's titles, taking him to 110-120 wins. But he only has Bottas to beat. His stats are going to end up wildly inflated.

Hats off Lewis.

Agreed, just like it was (to a smaller extent perhaps) with all the previous record holders

Awesome stuff. The scary thing is I can see him winning another 30 more races if he stays for at least 3 more years. He is far from done.

All depends what Merc do. He needs to new team mate to keep him honest.

I think he’ll make 110 wins anyways.

The most dedicated driver of all time, no argument, and today is a demonstration of what dedication can bring to anyone.

An amazing achievement, fantastic success, yet just the latest installment in an unbelievable story.

Such a great guy, great racer, great stuff.

92.

Well done Lew.

Yeah, Schumacher's win stats are inflated for me as well. He enjoyed unparalleled domination, and Mercedes have taken to a new level. But Hamilton deserves credit for making the move to the team in the first place - a masterstroke.

Win 100 will deserve a thread surely

He’s now won the same amount of races as Prost + Senna added together.

2 more than Alonso, Mansell and Stewart combined

1 more than Senna, Clark and Lauda added together

And only about 9 races behind winning more than the rest of the current grid combined. Though that’ll be made trickier next year when Alonso returns. (Only 4 races away from winning 3x Alonsos stats)

Absolutely pathetic :lol: considering Schumacher won some of his WDC and alot of wins with a car that had Traction control, automatic gearbox and launch control hardly think it suddenly become all about the car as Hamilton came into F1. Lol.

Congrats to Lewis Hamilton. One of the best of all time.

Congratulations to Hamilton. The mentality to get better and better is impressive. Mentally he is super strong.

Surely one of the greatest ever.

Sadly this thread again is starting about Mercedes. Can't we for once let this go?

Why for once can we not congratulate him on this remarkable achievement no matter what?

It is a great achievement and deserves to be celebrated.

I am happy Lewis has the record for the most wins. I have always liked him and his success is enjoyable and deserved. The better someone is the easier it seems. I also have a distinct appreciation for the irony of a black outspoken activist driver with intense off-track social and business commitments to dominate F1 (out of all sports) to the point he does. I remember when people asked if he was distracted by the things he did besides F1, that question has long been answered.

 

It's just a pity his success will coincide with F1's least exciting days ever.

No need to run, such topics do tend to come along with a big heap of bitterness (to an almost embarrassing extent from some).  It's true, stats are just stats, they do require some context.  We don't need the number of victories to tell us how good Hamilton is, or number of championships.

I know you both mean that in a spiteful way given your past behaviour with regards Hamilton, but the same is true for any driver.  It's a team sport.  As a driver you want the right team to want you.  You get in the right team, and you win.  Not all manage to win even when in the 'right' team.  Hamilton has, lots.

Because that is always the case with records. There is still a driver behind the wheel and he has teammates too.

A thread that can be positive will always be dragged down. And for what? to discuss that Mercedes has a great car. Just be happy for once without all the this and that. Because if this is the way then you can argue every win every driver every record, everything.

To the casual fans this is seriously a bad situation.

 

Whover it would be at front it is pretty horrible when we already have a "standard winner". Like the guy is expected to win every time apart from some outside factors.

 

This is even more dominating than MSC era.

 

Lewis will go easily over 100 if he continues. Might even go to #1 with "just" his Mercedes wins. Sadly most of his wins in later years will be blurred together since he seems to "win everything".

 

Even if there are gems like Germany 2018 there.

I tried to post this  :clap: 92 times but apparently that's against forum rules...

 

...so  :clap:  :up:  :smoking:  x92 

 

Nothing else to say really ... I am pretty sure I have watched all 92 of the wins

 

....Thanks LH, for the enjoyable Sundays.

 

And thanks to you guys ... I think I have double screened most of the wins with the folks on this forum.
