Verstappen can reach six wins at one circuit with Mexico victory

Max Verstappen is one victory away from joining a select Formula 1 group: drivers with at least six wins at a single circuit. A win at the 2026 Mexican Grand Prix on Sunday, November 1, would be his sixth at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez and put him alongside Lewis Hamilton, Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna, who have each won at least six times at one circuit.

Verstappen’s five Mexican Grand Prix victories came in 2017, 2018, 2021, 2022 and 2023, making him the race’s most successful driver. Jim Clark, Alain Prost, Nigel Mansell and Hamilton each have two wins there. Five of Verstappen’s six podium finishes in Mexico were victories; his other podium was third place in 2025.

Verstappen has led 331 laps at the circuit, more than all other active F1 drivers combined (272). Jim Clark is next on the list, with 191 laps.

Mexico is not his only route to the milestone: he could also reach it at the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi.
