There have been millions of fans all over the world who have closely followed and idolized these drivers as they won championships.

Complete list of F1 Constructors’ Championship wins:
Ferrari is the most successful F1 team of all time by quite some margin. This makes them arguably one of the biggest names in the sport’s history, even though success has eluded the camp in recent years. Ferrari hasn’t won a Title in the last 15 years, and it is something they want to change in the coming season.
Williams is another huge name in F1, but they have become a backmarker in recent years. Talking about the modern era of F1, the most successful teams have been Mercedes and Red Bull. Since 2010, no team other than them have won Championships.
On top of that, there are several teams who have won the Title just once. Take Brawn GP for example, who debuted in the sport in 2009, won the Championship with Jenson Button winning the drivers’ crown, and then disbanded.
Here is a complete list of every single F1 Constructors Champion ever:
Team | Number of Titles |
Ferrari | 16 |
Williams | 9 |
McLaren | 8 |
Mercedes | 8 |
