The Mercedes driver equalled Michael Schumacher's achievement in terms of titles, after already surpassing the German's number of race wins last month.
Victory at a treacherously wet and slippery Istanbul Park track in a topsy-turvy race was the 94th of the 35-year-old Briton's career.
Taking to his page after the race, he decided to post an appreciation post to his fans, family and management team.
The post reads:
"7X Formula 1 World Champion. Wow. To everyone that has supported me along the way, this is for you. To my incredible family, where do I even start? I am eternally grateful for your unconditional love, sacrifices and support...
" I wholeheartedly dedicate this to all of you, I hope I’ve made you proud today. #TeamLH, you guys have been there for me through absolutely every step of my career, this is for you...
" To my closest friends that have made this challenging season more bearable by continuously lifting my spirits, thank you, this year would have been so much harder without you. To every rival that has pushed me to grow and become better, thank you, I share this with you too...
"Last but not least, our most amazing team, @mercedesamgf1. We have grown so much together over the years. Thank you, and I share this with every one of you, especially Niki. We miss you every day. #S7ILLRISING🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆"
