F1 Grand Slams
Grand Slam = Grand Chelem = Pole, win, fastest lap, and having led every lap
To date, only 26 drivers have secured a Grand Slam. There have only been 66 in total.
Juan Manuel Fangio took the first Grand Chelem in a Formula One World Championship race at the 1950 Monaco Grand Prix. It was only the second World Championship race. Jim Clark has the record for the most Grand Slams, with eight, amazingly all achieved in a 32-race period that spanned just over three years!
