Frequently Asked Questions

Which F1 engine designer has the most Grand Prix wins?

Which F1 driver has won the most world championships?

Keith Duckworth, with 10 titles.

Which F1 engine designer has designed the most engines?

Paolo Martinelli and Luca Marmorini, with 9 engines. This ranking counts the results of the engines a designer is credited with; one engine often powered several teams in the same season, so the totals are not comparable with those of car designers.

Which F1 engine designer has scored the most points?
