To all the Formula One fans, before we start this list of the top 5 drivers with the most F1 podiums without a win, let all feel the delight of Lando Norris clinching his first win at the Miami Grand Prix at the Hard Rock Stadium in Floria on May 7, 2024, to end his unlucky run of most podiums without a win in a F1 race which was 15.
Let’s see what Lando Norris said about his win and about Donald Trump being his Lucky Charm.
“I didn’t see him in the garage, to be honest. I was busy prepping for the race. But he saw me after, and he came up to congratulate me. So I guess an honour, because whenever you have someone like this, it has to be an honour for them to come up to you, to take time out of their life, to pay their respect for what you’ve done.”
“He said he was my lucky charm because it’s my win. So I don’t know if he’s going to come to more races now. But yeah, there’s a lot of special people or cool people that have been here this weekend.
“Donald is someone that you got to have a lot of respect for in many ways. And yeah, for anyone like that who acknowledges what you can go out and do and acknowledges the work ethic that goes into things, you got to be thankful for that. And I was. So yeah, a cool moment. And that’s all.”
“About time huh?” said Norris, “I knew on Friday that we had the pace…today we managed to put it together. We had the perfect strategy, it all paid off,” “I guess a lot of people doubted me along the way. I’ve made a lot of mistakes over the last five years, my short career, but today we pulled it all together, so this is all for the team.
“I stuck with McLaren because I could believe in them and I did believe in them and today proved exactly that,”

Now, Let’s check out the Top 5 F1 Drivers with the most podiums without a win
1-Nick Heidfeld: 13 F1 Podiums
The German driver Nick Heidfeld is now the unluckiest F1 driver in history because he stood on podiums 13 times in his 11 years of Formula One career but never stood in the pole position. The last race he had was in the 2011 Hungarian Grand Prix, in which he was a driver for Lotus Renault.
2-Stefan Johansson: 12 F1 Podiums
Swedish driver Stefan Nils Edwin Johansson was known as one of the top talented F1 drivers, which is why Ferrari and McLaren both signed him in the Foluma One Championship. However, luck was not on his side, as he was never able to win a Grand Prix. Still, he finished his career with 12 F1 Podiums, which is a fantastic record.
3-Chris Amon: 11 F1 Podiums
With the looks of James Bond and the skill of one of the best F1 drivers, Chris Amon was one of the most talented drivers in Formula One history. What set him apart was his ability to understand his own car to the fullest, which is why former Ferrari Technical Director Mauro Forghieri said in his interview that Chris was the best test driver he had ever worked with.
Chris Amon stepped up on 11 F1 Podiums but failed to win a single one of them as a winner. Still, in the latter half of his career in 1996, he shifted to the 24 Hours of Le Mans Championship and finished first in that year alongside his former co-driver Bruce McLaren, who is the founder of McLaren.
4-Romain Grosjean: 10 F1 Podiums
The man who came out from Fire is the name given to him when he survived one of the most horrific accidents in Formula One because most people thought he might die there as his car split into two. Still, he came out of the car with minor burns, and that’s when everyone saw the importance of Halo in the F1 car.
Romain recently retired in 2020 after the crash, but before that, he finished the race 10 times on Podiums but was never able to win it. His last Formula One team was Haas, which he joined in 2016 from Lotus.
5-Jean Behra: 9 F1 Podiums
The man with a short temper and short stature was a Formula One driver for Ferrari in 1959. Jean Behra was a tough guy to manage in Formula One because he crashed a lot, which is why Ferrari terminated his contract when he assaulted the team manager.
Jean finished 9 times on Pdiums but was never able to win the race, which is one of the big reasons for his anger, but not too soon when he left Formula One racing. He died in a race when he was testing the Behra-Porsche RSK chassis.
