– A victory in Formula 1 is the ultimate confirmation of years of hard work. But the path to the first triumph is a very individual odyssey for each team. While some, as factory teams, struck directly from the start, others first had to go through numerous metamorphoses, change names and owners, before the first trophy stood in the display cabinet.

In our new photo gallery, we take a look at the first major moment of success for the current Formula 1 teams. It shows: The history of Formula 1 is a complex web of tradition and transformation.
Especially with the teams from Silverstone or Enstone, it becomes clear how often the identity can change, while the winning spirit remains at the location. We show you the pictures from back then: From the first successes of legendary world champions to sensational maiden victories by drivers no one had on their radar at the time.
Some of these victories were the starting signal for an era of dominance, others remained the solitary highlight of a courageous private team. We have compiled the milestones of all current racing stables – from the old-timers of the 1950s to the sensations of the recent past.

Photo gallery: The first victories of the current Formula 1 racing teams
By the way: The first team – or rather the first manufacturer – to win in Formula 1 was Alfa Romeo. The later world champion Giuseppe Farina won the very first Formula 1 race in history in 1950 at Silverstone.
However, Alfa Romeo has not been represented in the premier class for a long time, apart from the name sponsorship of the Sauber team in the recent past. Thus, the honor of the earliest victory naturally belongs, how could it be otherwise, to Ferrari. But do you still know who won back then?
Answers to who achieved the first victories for the respective teams and when the first success came can be found in the photo gallery.
