Mercedes lead Formula 1 constructors' standings for the first time since 2004

Mercedes have returned to the top of the Formula 1 constructors' standings for the first time since 2004, following the Azerbaijan Grand Prix in Baku.

George Russell's victory and Kimi Antonelli's fifth-place finish helped Mercedes extend their advantage over Ferrari. The team now leads the constructors' championship by 145 points.

Russell secured his third victory of the 2026 season after holding off Max Verstappen in a dramatic finish, while Antonelli recovered from 16th on the grid to score 10 points.

Mercedes have now won 10 of the 15 Grands Prix this season, while Antonelli continues to lead the drivers' championship ahead of his team-mate Russell.
