Max Verstappen’s relentless drive shows no signs of slowing down, despite his consecutive Formula One championships. The 25-year-old has made a remarkable start to his F1 career, consistently securing podium finishes.
With 42 victories, Verstappen currently ranks fifth on the all-time F1 win list, trailing Sebastian Vettel by 11 wins. Red Bull’s dominance this season, winning all nine races so far, fuels the speculation that Verstappen could surpass Vettel by the end of the year.
Even with Red Bull’s exceptional performance, team principal Christian Horner remains eager for more wins, recognizing their phenomenal start to the season. While an undefeated season would elevate Verstappen’s status among the greatest drivers, he emphasizes that his legacy is not his primary focus.
Verstappen’s direct and no-nonsense approach during races stems from his junior racing days, influenced by his father, Jos Verstappen, who achieved an F1 podium finish as the first Dutchman.
Verstappen’s passion for sim racing is evident off the track, and he envisions a bright future for the virtual racing esport. However, Verstappen firmly dismisses any aspirations of becoming a future F1 team principal, setting his sights on other goals within his motorsport career.
