Sachin Tendulkar's 24 years in cricket: 5 sports personalities who achieved similar greatness

Michael Schumacher

Formula One has had some great drivers, along with some extraordinary rivalries. But there has not been one dominant racer for an extended period of time. Well, perhaps, other than Michael Schumacher. The German’s time at Ferrari is perhaps the greatest period of domination the sport has ever seen. He won the world championship as many as 7 times, a record, and this included a run from 2000 to 2004, a 5 year period where he was untouchable.

Schumacher has many other records to his name. He’s the driver with the most number of race victories, he has the most number of pole positions, he has the most number of fastest laps, and he has the most number of career points scored. Also, in the 2002 season, he became the only driver in the history of Formula One to finish on the podium in every single race. In the 2004 season, he earned the record of most number of wins in a single season, by winning as many as 13 races. Truly unmatched, Michael Schumacher will live long in the minds of Formula One fans.
