Hat tricks
—Race victory from pole position with the fastest lap.
Race statistics cover completed Grands Prix. Points also include completed sprints. Pole means P1 on the race starting grid; conversion uses races with a known winner and pole starter. Gains compare the grid and finish for drivers who finished. Missing timing and lapped runners-up are excluded from closest finishes. Winning margins compare P1 and P2 in main races only, excluding lapped runners-up. Qualifying margins compare P1 and P2 in the last timed segment of main qualifying, or the single-session time for older formats; sprints and sprint qualifying are excluded. Hat tricks require a race win from pole and the fastest recorded race lap.
