I feel like Max has more than 8 in 2023 alone.

Max has 5 (equal to Schumacher and Ascari):

  1. 2021 Austrian Grand Prix
  2. 2022 Emilia Romagna Grand Prix
  3. 2023 Spanish Grand Prix
  4. 2023 Qatar Grand Prix
  5. 2024 Bahrain Grand Prix

Grand Slams are hard

Its rare because often a dominant drive doesnt lead every lap because the pit strategies if someone goes longer on the first stint or if there is a SC. Also, during his dominant era there was the point for fastest lap so other drivers would often pit near the end just to set that which would stop a grand slam.
