He's been the only one trying many different lines behind the SC... Without a shadow of a doubt, the most intelligent driver since MSC... Maybe even ever....
Max didn’t need any confirmation of his abilities. Ironically the Lewis Kingdom thought other wise, naturally. That was an epic drive a master at his best. Well and expertly trained by his great rain master of a father. 💪💪💪🇾🇪🇾🇪🇾🇪
If anyone doesn’t believe a wet line abs a dry line exist. This is a perfect video. You can see how much quicker he is driving off the normal racing line.
@@marks.6480 Yeah, at some moments in live you simply lack choice. He drives with number 33, which wasn't his first choice, but 3 was already taken (Ricciardo). Next season he will drive number 1, which is an option available to championship winners.
It's even better than that. Olav Mol, the Dutch F1 commentator you hear right there, prefaced it with _"Ik ga iets zeggen wat niet mag"_ which translates into _"I'm going to say something that's not allowed"_ *AND THEN* goes and utters that expletive anyway, in English no less. He then continues to state that every other driver would have parked the car into the wall after that slide, which is probably accurate too. He then sighs a _"Jezus"_ (Jesus) as way of relief too, in case you didn't catch that.
@@xnatchoz2961 English is a core subject on any Dutch school, no matter the students school level. People with higher education often have to choose between either German or French as well. Most people choose German because it's relatively similar to the Dutch language and more natural to learn. That's why in the Netherlands we often mingle English, German and Dutch words. Because most people here are quite proficient in those languages and sometimes words just sound better when said in other languages than Dutch 😉
Olaf Mol is the best !!! hadden ze bij andere sporten maar zo'n commentator. Max maakt die saaie F1 wel een fukking stuk interessanter... everybody bow to the max !
@@Lanse1984 anyone can overdrive a car. The magic is in finding the ultimate limit. You basically saying Ayrton Senna drove conservative whenever he didn’t spin in the rain? That’s crazy talk.
@@silent_fluo6917 WTF are you on about? He's clearly a rain master. Found the fastest lines in the wet where nobody else did (not even Lewis), and was in contention for the win (in the RB12 no less) until he went 1mm over the white line. Any other driver would have put it in the wall but he recovered well until losing a pit stop and 12 positions, then proceeded to drive circles around everyone else to finish on the podium. Everyone there was driving on their limit but he pushed past theirs and found the true limit in dreadful conditions. That was reminiscent of Senna, and Max was just 18. Edit: I'm sure if more footage of Senna's races were out there, you'd see him spin like that too.
Verstappen was and will never be a rainmaster...he just dont care, he is young and all that. After reaching 30 or 30+ he will be like some Vettel or Alonso maybe
No doubt lewis is fast in wet too. Max drive in brazil 2016 is legendary because he was 19 years old with 3rd best car at that time. Lewis with mercedes is expected to be 1st anyway at that time
