Michael Schumacher recorded his 91st and final Formula 1 race win at the Chinese Grand Prix in Shanghai 20 years ago, on Sept. 28, 2006. The victory put him level with Fernando Alonso at the top of the championship standings with two races remaining.
The anniversary report was published by RaceFans on Sept. 28, 2026, at 1:39 p.m., and was also listed with an Oct. 1, 2026, 12:01 a.m. timestamp. It was written by Keith Collantine, who founded RaceFans in 2005, when the site was called F1 Fanatic.
Only one other driver has matched Schumacher’s total of 91 Grand Prix victories: Lewis Hamilton, who reached that mark in 2020. RaceFans linked to its earlier report on the Chinese Grand Prix, titled “All tied at the top as Schumacher wins in China.”
Collantine previously worked as a motoring journalist and began running RaceFans full-time in 2010, fulfilling his long-held ambition to focus entirely on his passion for motor racing. The anniversary item appeared alongside links to other Formula 1 coverage, including reports on an FIA General Assembly discussion urged by a Ukrainian club over Russia’s alleged violations, six talking points about a proposed Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia, Esteban Ocon’s insistence that his career is not over as Haas confirmed he will not drive for the team in 2027, Alonso’s new Aston Martin contract for 2027, and Alonso’s call during his Azerbaijan Grand Prix retirement: “I think we will box”.
