Even a couple years ago, talk about reaching Schumacher’s 91 wins seemed fanciful. Now Hamilton is only 27 away—that’s three really strong seasons again. Maybe it is the prejudice of when I started watching F1, right at the beginning of the Schumacher era, but his win total has always seemed unassailable in my mind. It’s a shock to realize that Hamilton, if he has another good 5-7 years in his career, could handily surpass it.
