Lewis Hamilton can become only the third driver to win 50 grand prix races when Formula One returns from a month-long break to get back to business in Sunday's Belgian Grand Prix.
The triple world champion ended the first half of the season in blistering form, opening up a 19-point lead in the standings over Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg with six wins - four in a row - in the last seven races.
His victory in Germany last month was No 49, and only Michael Schumacher (91) and Alain Prost (51) have reached the half-century.
