Every driver who aspires to get to Formula 1 dreams of being world champion. Achieving a victory in a race is the first goal and, given the choice, it is better to do it with a ‘Grand Chelem’.
What is doing a ‘Grand Chelem’ in F1?
The so-called ‘ Grand Chelem ‘ consists of achieving pole position in qualifying, winning and also doing it with the fastest lap and having led all the laps of the race, from the first to the last.
It is something within the reach of very few, since on many occasions you depend on circumstances that occur on Sunday (accidents, safety cars, strategic variants) to achieve the most complicated part of Grand Chelem , to dominate from start to finish.
Which drivers have made a ‘Grand Chelem’ in F1?
Of the 111 drivers who have won at least one F1 grand prix, only 26 have a Grand Chelem . In this gallery we review who they are and how many Grand Chelem drivers such as Michael Schumacher, Ayrton Senna, Alain Prost , Fernando Alonso, Niki Lauda , Fangio , Vettel or Hamilton have garnered.
The last to enter was Charles Leclerc at the 2022 Australian GP, but Max Verstappen achieved what no one has done before. The Dutchman took pole position, victory leading all laps and won the sprint race in what could be qualified as Super Grand Chelem.
