Lewis Hamilton has the most top-10 finishes in F1 2026: 16. Behind the leader come Andrea Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes, 15), Charles Leclerc (Ferrari, 14), George Russell (Mercedes, 13) and Max Verstappen (Red Bull, 13). First to fifth is separated by 3. Number of races finished inside the top 10 this season.
The standout single-race number at the Singapore Grand Prix came from Lewis Hamilton: Y. Nobody has pushed harder over the last three rounds than Isack Hadjar (Red Bull): Y, Y, Y across Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia and Singapore Grand Prix — comfortably clear of the level set over the rest of the season. Going the other way, Pierre Gasly (Alpine F1 Team) has given up the most ground: N, N, N across Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia and Singapore Grand Prix, below the standard set earlier in the year.
So why is this ranking worth your time? Because it is exactly the kind of question every fan argues about and almost nobody actually counts. This one is counted: 23 drivers and 17 races of the F1 2026 season, built race by race from the official classifications. No votes, no opinions, no cherry-picked highlights — if a driver moves here, something real happened on track. And it recomputes itself after every Grand Prix, so the next time the argument comes up, the answer is already up to date.

After round 17 at the Singapore Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton leads the “Most top-10 finishes” ranking with 16 for Ferrari, built across 17 races counted so far. Andrea Kimi Antonelli sits close behind on 15, with Charles Leclerc third on 14. The biggest positional mover this update was Nico Hülkenberg, who climbed 1 place to P19 with 1 top-10 finish. Going the other way, Yuki Tsunoda dropped 1 place to P20, also on 1. What stands out is how tight the front of the table remains: with only one separating Hamilton and Antonelli and just two back to Leclerc, a single clean weekend can quickly reshuffle the top three even this late into the season.
