Since losing out on the Drivers' Championship title in his rookie season in 2007 by just a single point, Lewis Hamilton has made great strides and has well and truly cemented his place among the Formula 1 greats. The Briton who has 4 Championships under his belt is well and truly on course to grab his 5th World title equaling the tally of late Argentine great Juan Manuel Fangio. Hamilton has won in a record 26 different circuits around the world. As of the 2018 Japanese Grand Prix, Hamilton has started from pole in 85 races.
