Potential F1 Records Set to Be Broken or Extended in 2024

Unwanted Records in Formula 1 That Could Be Broken in 2024

In the fast-paced world of Formula 1, records are made to be broken. While Max Verstappen shattered several milestones in 2023, there are some unwanted records that drivers like Nico Hulkenberg and Lando Norris could potentially break or extend this year.

Nico Hulkenberg’s Quest for Victory

Currently held by Andrea de Cesaris with 208 race starts without a win, this record is within reach for Hulkenberg who has started 203 races. Despite coming close to victory in the past, including securing pole positions and leading races, luck has not been on his side. With Haas’ struggles from the previous season, breaking this record would require a miraculous turn of events for Hulkenberg.

Lando Norris’ Winless Streak

Lando Norris is often praised for his talent but criticized for not clinching a race win yet in his F1 career spanning five years. Despite multiple podium finishes and near misses like at the Italian GP where he came second behind his teammate Daniel Ricciardo, victory has eluded him so far. Matching Nick Heidfeld’s record of most top-three finishes without winning shows Norris’ consistency but also highlights his missing triumph.

The Lead But No Glory – Chris Amon’s Legacy

Chris Amon holds the unwanted title of leading the most laps without securing a win in F1 history with an impressive tally of 183 laps led over his career. Similar to Amon’s story where misfortunes plagued potential victories despite strong leads during races, Lando Norris stands as a contender poised to challenge this peculiar record.
