Michael Schumacher Michael Schumacher is a seven-time Formula 1 World Champion — a record he held alone until Lewis Hamilton equaled it in 2020 — and the driver with the most race wins in the sport's history at the time of his retirement. He won two titles with Benetton and five consecutive championships with Ferrari from 2000 to 2004. A severe skiing accident in 2013 left him with serious brain injuries, and his condition remains largely private, but his impact on motorsport is immeasurable.
