The last time any F1 drivers won the GP race with own home national tyre manufacturers respectively

Post

Recent Grand Prix winners using tyre manufacturers from their respective home countries:

1. Andrea Kimi Antonelli - Italy - Pirelli - 2026 Chinese GP

2. Alain Prost - France - Michelin - 1984 Portuguese GP

Image
3. Mario Andretti - United States - Goodyear - 1978 Dutch GP

4. Jackie Stewart - United Kingdom (Scotland) - Dunlop - 1970 Spanish GP

Ironically, Bridgestone, Engelbert and Avon have never seen a single home Grand Prix win or podium finish.

What are you counting a national car manufacturer?

How about Driver winning their home GP using tyres from the same country?

So for example if Kimi wins at Monza using Pirelli.....
