Eifel Grand Prix and Lewis Hamilton’s 91^st Win

Hamilton was expected to win Russian Grand Prix as his 91^st but the small mistakes he made on the practice rounds, resulted in two five-second penalties which led to him finishing the race in 3^rd place.  Maybe this fueled the driver up more and the record-equaling victory came just 2 weeks later than it was expected.

This season’s 11^th race was held in Nürburgring – Germany for the Eifel Grand Prix with a total of 60 laps. Having started the race in the second place, Hamilton finished first with a time of 1 hour 35 minutes 49.641 seconds. Hamilton reaching the top of the podium for the 91^st time in his career meant that he will stand alongside Michael Schumacher in the tables as the most successful driver in the Formula 1, in terms of the most race winnings.

After the race, Michael Schumacher's son Mick Schumacher gave one of his father's helmets to Hamilton as a present.

Red Bull's Dutch driver Max Verstappen took the podium with 4.47 seconds after the leader, while Renault's Daniel Ricciardo took third place with a 14,613 seconds difference.

If we mention about another record, Alfa Romeo's Kimi Raikkonen, who entered to Formula 1 for the 323^rd time in his career, took the record of most race entries from Brazilian Rubens Barrichello.

Nadal’s 13^th French and 20^th Grand-Slam Title

Spanish Rafael Nadal defeated the world’s number one Serbian Novak Djokovic, without giving a set (6-0, 6-2 and 7-5) at the Men's Singles Final of the French Open Tennis Tournament (Roland Garros). Standing out as the name with the most title winnings in a Grand Slam tournament, Nadal took the Roland Garros trophy to his home for the 13th time. Having won the title again in France, Nadal had his name written in gold letters in the history of this tournament and prove once again that he is the “King of Clay”.

After the victory over Djokovic, he succeeded in catching up with Federer’s 20 major titles. By winning this match, 34-year-old player, also got his 100^th victory on the clay courts of Roland Garros. Now Nadal is the second male player who saw 100 wins in the men's Grand Slam tournaments and the fifth player overall. In the men's category, Swiss Roger Federer was the only man to reach 100 wins at the Australian Open and Wimbledon. This also marked Nadal’s record-equaling win on Sunday.

Nadal, who triumphed in the tournament without giving a set to his opponent, broke another record. He became the first tennis player to win 4 titles without losing a set in Grand Slam tournaments. Having previously won the French Open in 2008, 2010, and 2017, Nadal broke the record he shared with Swedish Bjorn Borg, who achieved the same success at 1976 Wimbledon, 1978, and 1980 Roland Garros.
