2023 Formula 1 Standings: Verstappen Extends Title Lead as Ferrari Makes a Comeback
After the first ten rounds of the 2023 Formula 1 World Championship, Max Verstappen of Red Bull Racing continues to dominate the title fight, securing seven victories, including the most recent one at the Austrian Grand Prix.
Verstappen’s teammate, Sergio Perez, has had a more inconsistent season but managed to maintain his second-place position in the rankings. However, he faced difficulties in the last four rounds due to mishaps during qualifying, preventing him from reaching the final qualifying round.
In contrast, Fernando Alonso of Aston Martin has consistently delivered strong performances throughout the season. He has secured five podium finishes, claiming third place in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Australia, and Miami, as well as second place in the Monaco Grand Prix. Alonso currently sits in third place, just 17 points behind Perez.
Ferrari, after a strong start to the season, faced a lack of pace in recent rounds, exacerbated by reliability issues and crashes for drivers Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz. However, upgrades introduced at the Austrian Grand Prix appear to have revitalized the team. Both drivers demonstrated strength throughout the race, with Leclerc securing a second-place finish, marking his first podium of the season.
Mercedes-Benz AMG had a challenging start to the season and, despite improving their performance in recent rounds, still struggles to break free from the midfield.
Among the rookie drivers, McLaren’s Oscar Piastri became the first to score points. Piastri earned four points by finishing eighth in the Australian Grand Prix and added another point in Monaco. The remaining rookies, Logan Sargeant of Williams and Nyck De Vries of AlphaTauri, have yet to score any points.
