Before he joined the grid, people said he was to young.
When he joined the grid people said he was to aggressive.
When he gained more experience people noticed what he could do and become.
When he improved even more people often said 'thankfully we have Max to make it more entertaining'.
Now again he has people talking about him and saying 'Max makes it boring'.
Someone who has such an impact on the sport and has top 10 video's (of which people said there were moments missing) after only a couple of seasons in F1 is special.
Like him or not, but when looking at what he has done and the potential he still has you can't deny he truly is someone special.
A master amongst equals I'd say.
Extremely well said...
I can't remember which manager said it, but one of them said it takes a few years for a new driver to show what they can really do and Max took a couple of years, but before those couple of years he was already shining and with that he has gone on to dominate 2023 and most likely will be stronger in 2024. When Max said he doesn't want to be one of these who sticks around racing into his 40's i thourght to myself i can't see you leaving until you have beaten every record there is. If Lewis does get that 8th world title thus becoming the most sucessful F1 driver i can see max pushing it out to 9 or 10 titles for future generation to try and beat as he strives to be the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be.
As for boring, that is something Max certainly is not. I'm not a fan of any poticular driver, i watch the sport and enjoy seeing the driver's push and be pushed to the limits. We have seen max is not affraid to get into fights on track even when he has more to loose than the driver he is fighting with. This is the sign of someone who is willing to not leave anything on the plate and i have no idea how anyone can say he's boring. yes 3 titles now in a row but when a team starts dominating everyone is quick to say boring but most if not all was jumping for joy the day Max won his 1st and maybe 2nd titles.
All i will say is the fight Lewis and Max gave us in 2021 helped Max push deeper, find levels that shocked the world and his team and has only gone on to show case his true ability with even more depth to himself.
I follow Max since the Euro-F3 2014 days & I've never seen a driver to be 1,5-2 seconds per lap quicker on dry in Macau in a F3 car.
I consider myself very lucky to witness him race in F1 since 2015. He's a true legend of our sport & he will leave a great mark once his hunger gets settled.
Same year Norisring He Destroyed everyone even Ocon in the wet too that was it for me
Im Max fan since 2019
I remember my friends making fun of me, when i followed Jos and talked about how Max was destroying everyone on karts, saying.. yeah he destroys graveltraps and such things..
They are now wearing caps shirts and tattoos of Max...
I can only roll my eyes
you forgot nicky lauda! what he said about verstappen, other then that nice video!
Well, and Lewis of course.
@@AndreSomersMost you'll get out of Lewis is "Well Red Bull clearly have built an unbeatable rocketship"
Like he didn't get to drive the actual fastest F1 car of all time😂
@@marklyons8430lewis is a spoiled brat he never had to push hard in a car only when he raced nico. Between 2014 and 2021 merc had t fastest car every year leading nearly every race with atleast 20 sec gap between the second team. Now he knows how it feels when u have a car thats not championship material. Lewis is a good driver but most of his dominance is for sure because of the amount merc threw at the race program nearly 900 million pounds every season and the second team had like 360 million redbull had not even 300 million thats also why the Costcap was brought in place. So yeah its hard to win if your rival has 5 times the budget u have. Same with football real Madrid will never lose against some second league team that has a transfer budget of 30 million when they have a budget thats nearly 200 million
Niki Lauda, have some respect😅
We feel privileged to be able to witness Max's brilliance, on track, where he has developed a driving style that combines his unique focus & driving style to extracting the maximum potential out of a brilliant car.
I just think it’s cool that Red Bull doesn’t make cars, has never made cars, and yet they’re making a better car than all of these teams from established manufacturers. Super cool imo
It’s a blame imo for Ferrari and Renault who don’t win shit
That’s the power of what a incredible team with full of talent can do.
Thanks for sharing your perspective, never saw it like that and indeed it doesnt make any sense :D
Great video, positive and uplifting. When you become famous, your enemies also come to know you, they want you to fail, they wish you bad luck. As a famous person you have to deal with a lot of negative people in this world. Your video adds to the positive energie in this world. This video deserves more views, it is also very well made editing wise.
i don't see any enemies between all drivers at all in f1. motogp is different.
What I meant with enemies is not the F1 drivers, but the public who are booing during an award ceremony, or F1 channels that make negative content about Max, and keep repeating the negative points of the past from Max and even from his father calling him a criminal. These haters and bullies don't want to acknowledge the "NEW" Verstappen from today 2023. @@neithus1
I agree.
Look at how people treated Vettel when he won everything.
People appreciate someone most when it's only the memories left.
Lets hope more people start to appreciate history being made right in front of them more.
Good presentation. Thanks for sharing.
i follow him from the time he get in f3
it is unbelievable
what he accomplished
it is a fest to watch this young man
doing what he does
and loving doing it
Max Verstappen is a completely different ballgame than Lewis Hamilton! Of course Lewis is an excellent and talented driver, but Max is of a completely different caliber. Despite all his records, Lewis does not belong in the list of Michael and Ayrton, while Max fits in seamlessly. Lewis's character is also so different from these 3 men that you can never even compare him to them.
People Give Senna Too Much Credit i Would Rather Put Lauda Prost Alonso Ahead of Him
But people give Hamilton too much credit as well.
@@ericgordon4746 Hamilton Deserves Credit he Has The Most Wins/Poles/Championships. Senna Was The Best Qualifier Ever But on Race Days i Would Put Guys Like Prost Lauda Alonso Ahead of Him
@@prashantgurung2635Problem with Lewis is that he only can win from pole!
Lewis 104 poles 103 wins
for instance Michael Schumacher 68 poles 91 wins and Max Verstappen 32 poles and 54 wins!
@@51bikerboy Thats not true hamilton has so many wins from out of top 5 position than schumacher max combined senna has 68 poles with 41 wins means he was charles lecrlec of 80s you mean that
I mean, 19 wins in 1 season*. That alone is beyond anything. Loving it, so consistent and one with the car & team. Im curious though, is it really easier to win titles in a row because of more races? In my opionion, nah. The fact the car has to perform togheter with the driver being 100% each race, sure. Maybe they are more fit these days. Idk. There is definately nothing easy with Formula 1. That word has to go.
Why are you so low in subs..? I just stumbled across this video and subbed. You have a great voice for this kinda stuff, nice, calm and clear.
Keep it up, I hope my comment helps the algo boost your videos to other people.
I agree, a nice voice to listen to.
Max sets his car up always to be smooth. Then he is able to relax and read exactly what is happening on the track.
It's hard to argue with some of the greats in the sport. I think by the time he retires he will go down as one of the all time greats. Mostly because he is already showing signs of greatness. I really liked Alonzo dig at lewis by not even mentioning him.
Why? It's not even a dig. The conversation was about Verstappen. Fangio wasn't mentioned either.
Lewis isn't in the conversation about "greats." That's why Alonso didn't mention him.
@@quigglyzGuy Who Has more wins poles championships is not all time great
What is even more impressive about Max is that he focused solely on winning a race never pushes the car's limits ............ adding a new aspect to F1 racing .............. it keeps everyone guessing as to just how fast & reliable the RB 19 really is.
e.g. To match & beat Ferrari, in one race, all the RB team did to Max's car was to drop the down force a little. hmm
I disagree, he's nearly always pushing the car to its limit except when he's got a big gap in P1. Proof: Sergio Perez.
@@nickspacemonkey The trick is, he drives right on the limit when needed. He was so good with last years car that he could consistently do that when the situation called for it.
Because of that ability he rarely had to do that for an entire race distance.
If you’ve seen Max’s sim replays, he was on the limit consistently, never easing off, so it became natural for him to be always in a limit. Then adding the statistic from race engineer, he balance out tyre degradation and the car limit. But I’ve notice when fighting with other driver, he’ll push it past the limit, and we saw the peak of it during the 2021 season.
@@Alp577 Complements of the season to you & yours. In 2021, we agree that Max was on & over the limit most of that season as the car was not fast enough.
In 2023, Max seldom pushed the limit as he did not need to.
After the 2023 season, only the RB team knows what the RB19's maximum capability is.
@Alp577 sim racing & F1 racing are similar, but not the same as in sim racing as with sim racing, the reset button covers all mistakes / accidents.......physical / fincial costs are free .
As for 2021, Max had to drive beyond the car's limit as the car was not fast enough. Haha
In 2023 he managed the races as proved by the fact that he won 19 out of 23 races. 👍☺️
Alot of the credit has to go to Honda as well. They were a mess with McLaren. Got there heads down and became the best engine supplier in the game. Max finished every lap this season cuz of Honda and Red Bulls team.
Some say that was McLaren's fault imposing design and size restrictions on Honda. Supposedly with RedBull they let Honda design the engine and built the car around it, the opposite of McLaren's approach.
@@nickspacemonkey correct, and when McL switched engines it was still a sh!tbox. It was the car that was very bad.
Honda engine was still slower compare to mercedes and Ferrari even today. In 2021 RB have to lower their engine output vs 2020 to be reliable. But what made RB a dominant car in this new regulation is Adrian’s knowledge of ground effect and Max adaptable driving skill.
@Alp577 say what you will but your wrong.
Max can only be described in superlatives. Next to heroes as Fangio, Prost, Lauda, Senna, Schumi, Hamilton and others. And Puck Futin.
So nice for me as an Jos and Max Verstappen follower .
Father Jos was brought in too early in the Benneton. He almost never got a real chance again, except for one cat that was good, nevetheless went broke after some 5 races.
After that, he could only race as a paid driver...and damn other teams should have seen, that Jos starting from the last possition, he overtook mosrly about 5 cars in the first corner
But Yes no good team offered Jos a seat in their team. So Jos offered all his time to his son Max!
And nobody thinks now about father Jos as an loser again.
Max is mostly the product of his father... at least for the basics. Max honours his father every day !
Hill nice things wauw thats new
Hamilton has 7 titles.
Still in any list of legends Max will be above Lewis already. And rightly so.
As a fan, we love Max's ability to retain his enviable personality despite all the fame, fortune & incredible pressure everyone puts on him.
In our humble opinion, Max is destined to become the F1 GOAT of his era ........... if not the greatest F1 GOAT in F1 history. ha-ha☺
Verstappen's biggest challenge going forward may be to endure the relentless booing and jeering by that section of F1 fans whose primary interests are nationalism and tribal loyalty.
If you know Max you would know that he could not care less!
"I hope the go home and have a nice evening" LOL
Aston did NOT pose a significant challenge to Red Bull's dominance at the start of the year.
It took 2.5 years after Vettel left before Max joined Rb.
Actually it took a little less than 1.5 seasons
Alonso knows that Verstappen is better than Hamilton was...
All current or former F1 drivers know this. Most have acknowledged it, some won't acknowledge it for political or commercial considerations. The real debate is "Is Max as skilled as Schumacher and Fangio were?".
@@endthisnonsense7202 Seeing as how Max beat the record from Ascari, which neither have ever done so, as well as a slew of other records this season, he definitely belongs there.
Martin Brudel and Crofty should be ashamed of themselves
Aaldert
Nuff said
I feel that FIA will come up with a rule that 3 times world champions cannot start from the first 14 starting places. Just to give others a chance.
Lewis = sad face emoji for the rest of his career.
Alonso is still crying over rookie Lewis kicking his ass 😂 Max has Schumis driving style .. I like Max and Lewis
The dominance of Max will end when they start with the Ford engines. The partnership between Red Bull and Ford will be a disaster. Ford is not the same as Honda.
Hamilton fans on Facebook: "Bullsh*t"
I think that all of Lewis Hamilton's country men have it wrong and and i believe if Sir Lewis Hamilton wasn't a Blackman they would have given him a lot more credit for his racing ability including Martin Brundle and Crofty Jos Verstappen is trying to live his past fails a racing driver through his son and his connections with Marco and Horner witch he dont even like
What is even more impressive about Max's driving is that he always focus's solely on winning a race without pushing the car's limits....... no matter where he starts the race.
You’re forgetting something Hamilton titles to Wam , he was racing nobody
what a clickbait video, pfft.
Yes, Max is better than Hamilton, but not better than Schumacher. Schumacher was invincible back then and he build Ferrari to win so many races again. Until Max also go to another team and win a championship or two, he will never be greater than Schumacher.
Wrong, Max built RB already, doesn't need to go anywhere else. If it wasn't for Max, RB would have stuck with those awfull Renault engines. Max threatened to leave RB if they would not change engine supplier, so they did. Besides, as much as i respect his achievements (especially getting the most championships), the Micheal was not invincible. If he was, he would have gone on to beat the win % over a season that was set by Ascari in the beginning days of the sport, something Max has done this season. Or, he would have helped ferrari beat the win % over a season previously held by Mclaren since 88, only beaten this year by RB with Max doing the heavy lifting. Max is certainly as good as the Micheal, if not better.

Max is good.
Only he needs a car witch will outpreform the other cars whit a good driver.
Just see the diverance with checco.
Calling someone the best or GOAT is subjective.
Max won the most races from his start in formula 1 that was not driving a Mercedes. Think about it. Max was by far the best driver on the grid but didn't have a car to compete with Mercedes. Anyone would need to bring much better car than RB to beat Max. He is the best current driver and likely his peak is better than any other driver in history
@@Lanse1984 Yeah, he showed who's who in 2021. And now he's even better, and look at this year. Insanely consistent.
You just overlooked a fact in what you mentioned, the difference with Checo.
Either you are saying that Checo is a bad driver, which he most certainly is not, or you overlooked that a good driver like Checo, cannot get anywhere near Max, in the same car.
I know it is just your opinion, but you already had the answer why Max is exceptional in the words you used.
I do agree that GOAT is subjective and Max has not yet reached that level, he's going to need a few more titles to his name, but he is well on his way to get to that status.
@@j0hnn13Kcheco is not a good driver. My proof is when the rumors where flying around about him losing his seat not one single team offered him a job. If a good driver like Lando, Alonso, Charles, Albon, Carlos or Max to name a few became available they all would have recieved multiple offers. Case closed.
@@j0hnn13K IMO nobody is the goat.
And Checco is not a bad driver only less adaptble, so less good as Max.
Wath i was refering to.
Put Max in my wife's car and i will kick his ass everly single race driving mine.
You cant say who is the better driver Unless.
Did you remember Max his answer on a question few years back ?
Did LH drive a good race?
Max said "i dont know did not drive his car".
People like to say ( for example) latifi is a shit sriver.
I think he would kick hour ass everly single time.
So "the best, the better, the GOAT"is always subjective.
The only way to test is the famos Nicky Lauda entry to the sport.
In witch he said to a team boss "give me 1 night with that car and i will be 2 sec faster as the No 1 driver in it now.
So put LH and Max in a car other as the RB or Merc for a fp 1 to 3 and look who is faster, and still .................
He’s ok, but he’s no Lewis Hamilton.
Too soon to talk about 8 titles. He is good yes but 3 titles does not mean he can make it 8
I know a certain someone who isn't going to get number eight, someone who bears the name lulu.
@@EntropicExergy Well he’s obviously closer to making it 8 than Max isn’t he
@@fredsalfa Not for long though. And Max will make sure lulu will never get to number eight, as will all of the other hungry young drivers, together with Fernando.
@@EntropicExergy That’s just wishful thinking and name calling without any clear unbiased analysis of the facts and probabilities of how F1 works
So why was the race director sacked, get your facts straight.
probably because he WASN'T sacked ?
Masi ruled in Hamilton's favor 90% of the time in 2021, but you weren't crying then. You only remember one decision from that year. Move on.
He was pushed out because of Toto/Merc being petulant little children. That man and team cannot take a loss gracefully or with dignity. It shows the true character of that lot. The season 2021 proved to be great, not on;y because Max won gloriously but in exposing the rathole that is Mercedes.
By the way, Massi did exactly what the TP's (and thus Toto as well) asked him to do: not let the race finish under a SC.
#StillWeCry
@@reddwarf666 Exactly, it was wolffieboy who lobbied for the green flag finish after Spa 21, with the other team principles agreeing to it. Not only are the merc losers incompetent, they suffer from severe amnesia it seems, having forgotten about it in less than half of a season. But as usual with the lulu/merc cultist clowns, they will claim anything opposing the facts, that lot just do not get how facts work. That is how stupid those clowns are.
So where was maxipad before 2020?
Everyone like to dis Hamilton saying its the car, now that maxipad is in the dominant car, suddenly its not the car but his talent?
eehhh, winning races in the 3rd fastest car? Showing his abilities in Brasil 2016? Fighting, as on of the only drivers, with the very dominats Merc's ? That RB had a very bad Renault engine. Ham hasn't won anything in the 2nd best car, for 2 full seasons now............. MERC's were BOTH in front of the grid, with record 1-2 qualies and 1-2 finishes.
@@Eric-rf1is When cherry picking, the same can be said for Hamilton
You need to grow up and move on. Lewis never deserved his titles.
@@icemaniceburg2390 Ham had the 2nd best car for 2 years now and won nothing......... his teammate did..........
@@quigglyz Ad hominem aside, explain the dichotomy between Hamilton wining in a fast car vs maxipad wining in a fast car, or are you not mature enough to explain.
Alonso is still so salty about being outperformed by Lewis who was a rookie that’s sad… 😂
Not really, he just thinks Max is on a different level in terms of race craft. Also, Lewis was defeated by Max when Max was also only 23/24.....and at some point someone else will come along and beat Max again. Lewis is no longer in the conversation, at the moment he is nothing but a sidenote
One of the reasons that Nando likes Max, is that he recognized quite early that Max was a new and serious challenger to Lewis. It’s common knowledge that there is no love lost between Nando and Lewis. Remember when Max won his first race? Alonso came into Parc Ferme to congratulate Max even before the podium ceremony.
Chadlonso recognizing GOATstappen, meanwhile Lulu too busy with non-alcoholic Tequila to focus on winning.
Alonso likes Max's down-to-earth mentality way more than the stardom and wokeness seeking lifestyle of LH.
Alonso was about the only one who didn’t make a problem of Max joining F1 at 17 years old.
That Hill is saying this is flabbergasting, somewhere along the road he at last saw the light.
Max is not good, he'll just run into everyone. And no one wants their cars destroyed. Redbull seems to have unlimited funds. So they tell Max to do whatever it takes. So he cuts people off with the intent on crashing into them. So people avoid him.
I love your pain
How max won the first one again? Second budget cap and it snowball. He a good driver but this video is a joke
Youre comment is more like a joke!!!
Probably youre life to!!
Not as big a joke as your comment. He won because he had more points at the end of the season. hahaha
@@joejoe8322 u talking about ur life ? 🤡
He won the 1st one by cheating, the 2nd by their overspend, which no matter how much, was still over the amount it should have been, so he has gained an advantage for the 1st two, that means he is still benefiting from the 2nd championship, lets see if he has a better team mate, Alonso, Vettel or Hamilton would give him a run for his money.
