Formula One racing is one of the most glamorous and dangerous sports in the world - but with great risk comes great reward.
Top drivers can become fabulously wealthy, with multi-million pound contracts offered by the top car manufacturers to race - and win - for their team.
Add in money-spinning advertising and sponsorship deals, personal appearances and shrewd investments, and these race heroes can bank serious amounts of cash.
Even after retiring from driving, media work and getting involved in the technical side of (or even owning) a Formula One team can keep the money rolling in.
Here are the top 13 F1 drivers in the world in 2025, according to CelebrityNetWorth.
13. Nigel Mansell
One of Britain's most successful drivers, Nigel Mansell raced for Williams in F1 from 1980 to 1995. He won 31 Grands Prix across 15 seasons, including triumphing in the 1992 Drivers' Championship. He remains the only driver to have simultaneously held both the World Drivers' Championship and the American open-wheel National Championship. It's earned him a fortune of around $90 million. | AFP via Getty Images
