Michael Schumacher, who won a record 91 Grands Prix during his career.

Formula One, abbreviated to F1, is the highest class of open wheeled auto racing defined by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), motorsport's world governing body.¹ The "formula" in the name refers to a set of rules to which all participants and cars must conform. The F1 world championship season consists of a series of races, known as Grands Prix, held usually on purpose-built circuits, and in a few cases on closed city streets, the most famous of which is the Monaco Grand Prix in Monte Carlo.² The results of each race are combined to determine two annual World Championships, one for drivers and one for constructors.

Michael Schumacher holds the record for the most Grand Prix victories, winning 91 times during his career.³ Alain Prost, is second with 51 race wins, and Ayrton Senna is third, with 41 Grand Prix victories. Michael Schumacher holds the distinction of having the longest gap between his first win and his last. He won his first in 1992 at the Belgian Grand Prix, and his last in 2006 at the Chinese Grand Prix, a gap which spans 14 years 1 month and 1 day. The youngest winner of a Grand Prix is Sebastian Vettel, who was 21 years, 73 days old when he won the 2008 Italian Grand Prix.⁴ Luigi Fagioli is the oldest winner of a Formula One Grand Prix, he was 53 years, 22 days old when he won the 1951 French Grand Prix.⁵
