Hamilton took the record for most Formula One wins by claiming his 92nd win at the 2020 Portuguese Grand Prix. Starting from pole both Hamilton and Bottas struggled to find grip on their harder compound medium tyres and were passed by Carlos Sainz on the opening lap. Once their tyres warmed up, both Hamilton and Bottas overtook Sainz with Bottas leading from Hamilton. Hamilton gradually overtook, seemingly faring better on his tyres. Hamilton comfortably led the race to the end and extended his world championship lead to 77 points.
