In the 2020 Formula 1<\/a> season, Lewis Hamilton ticked off several of Michael Schumacher\u2019s long-standing records. Some records we thought would never be beaten were falling one-by-one to the hands of the Briton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schumacher\u2019s seven World Championships were thought to be untouchable. At the turn of the last decade, it was fellow German Sebastian Vettel who looked the most likely to get close with a string of four in a row. But Lewis Hamilton has won every title bar one since Vettel\u2019s last in 2013.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, how does Lewis Hamilton shape up to Michael Schumacher? The two drivers only raced against each other for three seasons. Schumacher returned the year before Hamilton\u2019s debut, but returned from 2010 to 2012. And when he left Mercedes, he made way for Hamilton himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve looked at how they compare in terms of championship wins, pole positions, points. But in our in-depth video, we\u2019ve gone further. We\u2019ve applied different scoring systems to their races, looked at the gap by which they take pole position, and compare their performances to their teammates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Watch the video<\/a> below, and decide for yourself who is the greatest driver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
