The Formula 1 spotlight this weekend fixes firmly on Andrea Kimi Antonelli as he stands on the verge of securing the 2026 Drivers' World Championship at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. This monumental milestone not only establishes the young Bologna-born talent as the youngest champion in the sport's history, but it also delivers immense pride to Italian motorsport on the global stage.
However, the celebrations for the Brackley-based squad do not stop at a potential drivers' crown. The Silver Arrows are actively chasing an incredible consecutive podium record from the very start of the 2026 campaign, a feat that echoes past legendary eras. Through all 18 Grands Prix contested so far this season, at least one of the team's drivers has consistently finished inside the top three.
The remarkable consistency displayed by George Russell and his teammate has already equaled the historic benchmark set by Michael Schumacher and Rubens Barrichello with Ferrari back in 2004, locking in 18 consecutive podium finishes from the season opener. Yet, the absolute all-time record remains safely in the hands of the Brackley organization.
That ultimate record was established during the 2014 season—the dawn of F1's turbo-hybrid era—when fierce rivals Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg claimed at least one podium step at every single race throughout that championship calendar.
With their current trajectory in 2026, the opportunity to match that legendary milestone arrives directly at the upcoming Mexican Grand Prix. Should either driver finish inside the top three in Mexico, Mercedes will equal that historic streak before the season reaches its final destination.
