WHO IS THE F1 GOAT: ZAK BROWN RANKS AYRTON SENN ABOVE SEVEN-TIME CHAMPION LEWIS HAMILTON
Zak Brown sparks a GOAT debate: Discover why the McLaren CEO ranks Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher above Lewis Hamilton.
People often call Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen two of the best racers ever, but McLaren CEO Zak Brown doesn't think either is in his top two.
Hamilton has won the most in F1, and he and Michael Schumacher (who Brown says is the second-best) both hold the record for seven titles. Juan Manuel Fangio is third with five titles.
Verstappen is tied with Alain Prost and Sebastian Vettel with four titles. McLaren's Lando Norris grabbed the 2025 title by only two points, ending Verstappen's four-year run.
Verstappen could have been like Schumacher if he'd won in 2025. Schumacher's still the only racer to win five in a row from 2000 to 2004 for Ferrari. Vettel (2010-2013) and Hamilton (2017-2020) both grabbed four in a row.
Zak Brown thinks Ayrton Senna is the GOAT; prove him wrong
Zak Brown believes Ayrton Senna is the absolute best in F1. Hamilton also has the most Grand Prix wins (105), pole positions (104), and podiums (202). Schumacher is second in each, with 91 wins, 68 poles, and 155 podiums. Verstappen is third for wins (71) and podiums (127) but fifth for poles (48).
Still, Brown thinks Ayrton Senna is the best F1 driver ever. He puts Hamilton and Verstappen behind Schumacher. Senna won three titles before his death at Imola in the 1993 San Marino Grand Prix.
Brown told BAT, Senna is a no-brainer. After that, probably Schumacher. You are wrong. Put Lewis in there, and you have to put Max in there.
But my second favourite is Mario Andretti. I love Mario and the guys who do different things. Nigel Mansell, Emerson Fittipaldi, and Mario Andretti were IndyCar and Formula 1 world champions. That's why I admire Fernando Alonso so much.
When Alonso was like, 'Let's go to Indy [the Indianapolis 500],' not many F1 racers would be up for it. I think after he started, he was like, 'Oh my God.' It's punishing, 230 miles an hour. It's crazy.
Max Verstappen is becoming part of the F1 GOAT talk.
Senna is third in poles (65), fifth in Grand Prix wins (41), and eighth in podiums (80). He also raced in the fewest Grands Prix: 162 versus Hamilton's 380, Schumacher's 308, and Verstappen's 236.
Senna often shone in qualifying and in the rain. But not everyone agrees with Brown that Senna's the best, as Verstappen is getting much praise.
Senna's ex-teammate Stefan Johansson thinks Verstappen is the best ever since he's the most complete. But some might say Verstappen still has to prove himself in close races against his rivals.
THE 2026 ULTIMATUM: WHY NEXT SEASON IS "MAKE OR BREAK" FOR LEWIS HAMILTON
After a winless 2025 debut, Lewis Hamilton faces a pivotal year. See why Steiner believes the 7x champ is nearing the F1 exit.
Guenther Steiner, who used to run the Haas team, thinks Lewis Hamilton might quit Formula 1 if Ferrari can't get to the top of the Driver's Championship by 2026—he thinks that season will be super important for the racing star.
Hamilton had a tough first year with Ferrari, ending up sixth in the F1 rankings with 156 points.
That was 86 points behind his teammate, Charles Leclerc, and he didn't even get on the podium once, which is a first for him in a full season.
He often said he was bummed out about how his Ferrari debut was going.
Back in November, after the Las Vegas Grand Prix, he told Sky Sports, I feel awful. This has been the worst season ever, and it just keeps getting worse no matter how hard I try. I'm trying everything I can, both in and out of the car.
Hamilton looked pretty sad a lot during the season because he couldn't really fight for race wins.
Steiner told Sports Krone, I think if Ferrari has a good car next season, Hamilton might be able to turn things around. If they are more competitive, Lewis might find his drive again. But if things stay the same, next season will probably be his last in Formula 1. He's not going to go through that again. The situation is tough for him, and you could see that in every interview. So, the next season will be key for him.
What's Hamilton saying about quitting?
When the media asks Hamilton about his F1 future, he doesn't want to talk about retiring.
At the end of the season, when someone asked him what he would say to those who think he might retire soon, the 40-year-old said, I wouldn't say anything to them. None of them have done what I've done, so they don't know anything more than I do.
Last summer, after some rumors that he might leave early, Hamilton said he's staying at Ferrari until his contract is up.
He said, For those writing stories about me thinking about not racing, I've just started here with Ferrari. I've been here for a few years, and I'm in it for the long run, so there's no question about what I'm focused on achieving with this team. There are zero doubts, so please stop making stuff up.
In 2026, everyone will still be wondering about Hamilton's future in F1, mainly if Ferrari keeps struggling with the new rules. And if Steiner is right, another year of not competing for a championship could be the end for him.

Max Verstappen copped his fifth straight driver-of-the-year award in Formula 1's secret peer vote, even though he almost grabbed a fifth title in 2025 but didn't quite make it.
The drivers all voted in secret, except for four guys. The Red Bull driver beat out Lando Norris, who just won the world championship, for the number one spot.
The voting worked like the normal F1 points system. Drivers ranked their top 10 rivals. Verstappen got 25 points from six votes to win.
Norris, who won his first championship after a crazy season, came in second in the driver rankings for the second year running.
The McLaren driver won the title after fighting off pressure from Verstappen and his teammate, Oscar Piastri, all season long.
George Russell took third, moving up one spot from last year. The Mercedes driver had a killer season with two wins and seven more podiums.
Piastri was fourth, up one spot, even though his championship hopes fizzled out near the end. The Aussie was leading by 34 points at one point before his performance dropped off.
Charles Leclerc finished fifth, down two spots, even though he got everything he could out of Ferrari's SF-25. The Monegasque driver had seven podiums during a tough season that saw Ferrari finish fourth.
Carlos Sainz held onto sixth after a great comeback at Williams. After a rough start, the Spaniard grabbed two podiums in a strong second half of the season.
Fernando Alonso jumped two spots to seventh, and the two-time world champion had some crazy drives in Aston Martin's AMR25.
Alex Albon took eighth after his best season with Williams, while rookies Oliver Bearman and Isack Hadjar rounded out the top 10, getting props for their awesome first seasons.
Pierre Gasly almost made the list, even with 10 Q3 appearances in Alpine's tricky A525.
Lewis Hamilton, who's won seven world championships, didn't show up in the rankings, which is a first since they started doing this poll. It shows how rough his first season at Ferrari was.
The four drivers who skipped the vote were Hamilton, Nico Hulkenberg, Lance Stroll, and Yuki Tsunoda.
