  • 2021, 2022 and now 2023! What a three years in Formula 1 it has been Max Verstappen. Winning his first-ever F1 title in dramatic fashion in Abu Dhabi, to dominating the last two seasons in the RB18 and the all-conquering RB19. However it is very much the same Max Verstappen that stepped into Oracle Red Bull Racing back in 2016, winning on his Team debut at the Spanish Grand Prix. We sit down with the reigning World Champion, his race engineer GP, Checo Perez and Christian to find out what they have learned about Max as he approaches his ninth season in the sport.

      After that weekend when Max was promoted to the Red Bull team, reporters asked Kvyat how he got the news about the switch. "Helmut Marko called me". Do you remember what you were doing when Marko called? "I was watching Game of Thrones". Then they asked Max what he was doing when Marko called. "I was studying the videos of the last 10 races at Barcelona".
      A year earlier, in Max's first F1 season, they asked all the drivers what their plans were for the summer break. One went off to the beach, one went camping, fashion shows with celebrities, whatnot. Max? "We have testing this weekend at Barcelona". Yes but away from F1, what are your plans for the summer? "I'm going go-kart racing with my friends". Yes yes, but aside from driving cars or go-karts, what are your plans for the summer? "Sim racing".

We were all just going nuts with excitement and the worst part was it was 0600 in Denver and due to the race buildup we were already drunk!! Long day after that hahaha but we were happy.

      Vast majority of drivers do not start their careers in the best let alone dominant cars, irrespective of their talent and CV prior to F1 to be fair. The only exceptions I know are Damon Hill, Jaques Villeneuve and Lewis Hamilton.
      All others, including such legends as Senna and Schumacher had to prove themselves first and learn the basic in backmarkers or midfield cars before receiving an offer to drive for a top team.

It is about what Jos did to make Max successful in his racing career. He may have failed to be a good husband or father but he definately did something your father couldn't. He made one of the best F1 driver to ever live and made him successful to earn millions from it. Something your father couldn't.

Of course his relentless top level driving which just keeps going on and on has probably never been seen before, is unbelievable.

December 12th, just over three years ago. I sincerely think that the right man won the Championship. The other guy had a great end of the season. But what a season Max drove. And there was only one outcome that was the crown on this year. And that was Max being a deserved 1st time World Champion. Well deserved for him, for Red Bull Racing and Honda!

    I've been an F1 fan since 1997 (that year's Hungarian GP was my first). For years I'd been hoping we'd ever see a Dutch winner, but unfortunately, most of my countrymen had been in midfield or back marker teams. So when Max came into F1, at the tender age of 17 and performing the way he did in his first season, it gave me hope. I will never forget where I was when Max won his first race and never will I forget the incredible feeling of seeing him win his first title. Apart from getting married and becoming a father, nothing has come close to that feeling. To see him subsequently break almost every record conceivable in 2023 was just the cherry on top. Thank you Red Bull for making my and all other Dutch F1 fans dreams come true.

Yeah sure he was a bit hot headed at the start of his career but he was doing the same thing he's doing now but in a more mature manner. Props to Red bull for giving Max an even better car then he had in 21 & 22 but Max is t one with his car almost every time he drives. He broke so many records this season, Carried Red bull on his own shoulders which was an amazing thing to witness. Max is a 3x champion because He is a perfectionist, Everyone is quick to throw shit towards Max & it's been happening for years. Everything Max does needs to be done to a high standard! not 99% or even 100%. He's the type of driver that wants 110% perfection every time he sit in the car. Then you add his competitiveness. Max won this years title in Qatar, He could have raced the last 5 races in auto pilot but he still kept his head down like he was fighting for the title until the last race.
