Lewis Hamilton’s Net Worth
The richest Formula 1 driver in 2025 is Lewis Hamilton, with a net worth of $300 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. He makes his fortune from his silky Formula 1 pay, performance bonuses, massive endorsements, and smart investments. Over his years of existence in Formula 1, Hamilton has partnered with the world’s biggest brands like Tommy Hilfiger, Puma, and Monster Energy, and his earnings have increased exponentially.
In addition to a love of race driving, the most prized assets of Hamilton include a $ 57 million New York penthouse with Tom Brady and Gisele Bündchen and a Mediterranean-view Monte Carlo mansion. Low-production supercars such as a LaFerrari Aperta, two Mercedes-AMG Project One supercars, and a Pagani Zonda 760 LH join his $16.5 million stable of high-performance exotic autos. Even though he used to own a $29 million Bombardier Challenger 605 private plane, he afterwards sold it in deference to his ecological promise. His extravagant life also includes a $4 million Sunseeker 90 yacht, which is tied up in Monaco regularly. Hamilton’s wealth shows his Formula 1 dominance and capacity to monetize his persona off the racetracks, making him the best-paid driver on the racetracks.
Max Verstappen’s Net Worth
Max Verstappen has also seen a meteoric rise in his wealth, with his net worth estimated at $200 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. His rise to riches has been powered by his record-breaking Formula 1 success, huge Red Bull Racing deal, and sponsorships.

Being the best-paid driver in base salary, Verstappen has an estimated $65 million annual income, apart from performance bonuses and prize money. His long-term deal with Red Bull until 2028 provides him with financial security for the years ahead. He has also wisely invested, say, in property to increase his wealth. Verstappen’s sponsorship donations are significant to his wealth, with agreements from firms such as Heineken, Viaplay, and EA Sports. He has also begun building his own GT3 racing team, demonstrating how far he is spreading his wings outside of car racing. Although he lags behind Hamilton in net worth, his quick financial development will catch up with him in no time.

While both Hamilton and Verstappen are two of the world’s highest-paid sportspersons, Lewis Hamilton is marginally richer in net worth with $300 million against Verstappen’s estimated figure of $200 million. Hamilton’s diversified holdings in investments, global brand valuation, and quarter-century-long sports dominance have etched his throne of riches. Verstappen’s meteoric rise, bolstered by his Red Bull agreement and other venture investments, may however triumph over Hamilton’s money throne soon enough.
