Lewis Hamilton, king of a contrasting F1 season

ANALYSIS - If the 2020 vintage will have offered little suspense, it will have marked the return of France to the fore.


Summary of a particular season which ended with the success of Max Verstappen (Red Bull) at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

● Hamilton alone in the world

The Covid-19 had to get involved to slow down the Briton, who also had a season close to perfection.

And steeped in history, with its ability to beat or equal legendary records.

In particular that of the number of career victories, which many imagined would remain the prerogative of Michael Schumacher ad vitam aeternam.

But, by winning in Portugal on October 25, Hamilton notched his 92nd success and erased the mark of 91 of his German predecessor.

A total which he then brought to 95 during an exercise that he will have crushed with all his talent with 11 victories.

And without his positive coronavirus test in Bahrain, perhaps he could have equaled the record for the number of successes in a season, held by Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel (13).

No problem, the Briton will amply console himself with his 7th title
