Onboard Max Verstappen on Rotax Max kart in Castelletto 

Watch George Russell's onboard laps at La Conca 2013 here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BXnzPh2kZ5Q.html

Just 3 years later he won his first F1 race, crazy

Once he took the lead he went a second quicker each lap that passes. 42, 41, 40, 39, 38. Always competing each lap. Awesome. No one beats this man.

Kinda insane that he went from karting to his first FP1 session in less then a year.

People seem to think that "he just has a faster kart." While tuning and equipment does indeed improve performance, it doesn't win you races, let alone international ones like this. Every driver at a race like this has tremendous funding and very knowledgeable mechanics who can tune the shit out of the karts. What you see here is pure driving skill (remember this is rotax, where every engine is the same and the single speed gear box makes driver skill even more vital to differentiate yourself). I believe the way he is able to obliterate the competition in this video is that he has perfected his braking technique so well that he is able to corner at the right speed while keeping the engine rpm's in the power band to allow for maximum acceleration out of corners. If you watch other really good drivers, you can just hear it when they brake. The engine noise stops, and then as they lift off it comes back but at a weaker sound. This is called bogging down the engine, and doing so in rotax guarantees that you will have no power/acceleration out of the corners. Few can master their braking and become so smooth that they always have power and grip. Max is one of those few.

I am pretty sure that this young guy will be the best F1 driver one day.

"haha, yes, kart was amazing today"

The way he’s just so much faster than everyone else is just insane😱😱😱

Those moves.! Damn! And he does the same moves in F1 with precision, just pure talent. He can woop anyone's ass in any raceclass!

The amount of rotation in every corner is insane

10 years later and the guy is 3 times F1 world champion

4:40 Man that overtake is soooooooooooo GOOD 🤩

Such an aggressive and brave approuch. This man is insanely talented. To the Max

TALENTO, MAGIA, TREMENDO MAX

This video does a great job of showing how max likes to takes his corners. Early apex so he can get back on the power/straighten the cart early to increase the time on throttle

He does not give one eff. He showed the smallest amount of patience and respectfully said “I’m way faster goodbye!” No hesitation, no missed beat. And then when the track is completely open you see his real pace and it’s on an even higher level🤯

So young, so fast, so talented, so brave WOW!!!

Amazing, this guy is already a legendary driver.

Menuda forma de pilotar ni una sola corrección y yendo muy rápido. Es increíble como se los come en cada curva 🥰🥰🥰

Domínio perfeito sobre a máquina já era um predestinado. Campeão!

I love the fact that Jos made the factory karts blush with his own tuning! Max pushed it to the limit. How great is that?

One word.....smooth.

This guy has the potential to become one of the greatest f1 driver, i think he will become a world champion one day

can't believe it's already 11 years ago

Simply lovely

Jesus when he gets the lead he turns it up and is just untouchable.

This guy will one day make thousands of grown men cry..

The genius at work

That was fun to watch

Es un auténtico “killer”….. puro talento desde Niño.

Awesome 🙌 Max must have made a pact with the laws of physics 💪

OMG it's like playing ACC with AI at 90%, he's so skilled. His throttle modulation is just impressive

Castelletto 😍😍 My favorite track. Go go max 💪💪😃🇧🇶

So much has changed yet nothing has changed.

he overtook everyone on the same turn Amazing..

Looks like a champ!

Bel videogioco!

O malandro equilibra o carro no freio depois da curva kkkkk Muito bom 👏👏👏

Not a Max fan, but he is blood good and so consistent

3 time world champion Max Verstappen!

3:04 WHAT????? Unreal

This guy is very good.

Masterclass

Before GoPro's with stabilization. Wasn't until GoPro 7 Black was it pretty descent. Better each generation. I used a 9 on a chest rig snowmobiling and the surroundings were steady smooth and level. Only the snowmobile showed any movement.

Red Bull and Vettel have been dominating F1 these past four years, I would like to see what this Max kid would do in a Red Bull one day.

Super Max

He reminds me of how I drive, watch the horizon, you can see when he eases off the steering input just enough to let the grip come back, and then he loads the tires again. His killer full sends down the inside is why I'm sitting typing and he isnt, that.. and the opportunity he received

damn that dude is quick i sure hope he makes it to f1

The discipline to stay a cigarette paper better than everyone else at every single moment is incredible.

Eu acho que esse cara tem potencial de ser piloto de F1😮

this guy is so talented, he should be in f1

I'd love to see his steering inputs as well!

This guy is pretty good, I think he can win a world title in Formula 1

Omg he's s miracle

Super pilote super

My boy doesnt fucking miss dude

vim do futuro' pra dizer que esse garoto vai ser Tri campeão. Kkkkkkkk!

Wait.. he went from this to winning his first GP in 3 years? Wtf?

Killer

10yrs later 2wdc 41wins in f1

man what a nice day for karting max joins try hard me comes out

Max's father was very disappointed for Max not starting in pole

How much fast this kart can reach?

Pensa che 10anni fa guidava come adesso 😂😂😂 si ma adesso e 3 volte campione delmondo ..sempre guidato pulito max mamma mia impressionante che guida😂😂😂😂

The fact we call the training ground for the greatest drivers of all time "go karting" is hilarious, ironic and brilliant

This guy is real good, I think he can represent redbull someday

With this video in mind you understand why they gave him an F1 seat just one year later. The only motorsport athlete who is having a similar trajectory right now is Pedro Acosta in MotoGP. They are both cut from something else...

Pretty good driving. He should try racing for a living

Max, how do you see yourself in 10 years? I see myself as a 3-time F1 world champion

O cara é bom mesmo, o cabra é diferenciado, rápido virado na desgraça

Enough with the “he should be an f1 driver” jokes! OMG!

For every 1000 Lance strolls there's one Max verstappen.

What difficulty setting is this?

This guy should try racing in the big leagues like F1. He would we good

po po po pooooooooooo...............

Kid has good potential

And they said it’s the car lol

Seems like a good driver, could make it to f1

Max vs Leclerc 😮

Trust me guys, in 10 years time he will be at a least triple F1 world champion

Max Max Max, Super Max.......

This guys good. I wonder what he did after his karting career

Tutto tranne che impressionante...

a bit aggressive but whaou that looks dangerously fast!

I don't understand. Did the race start at the pit-out? No formation lap, no lining up two-by-two, no green flag?

When does the race start? It says Race 2, but they never have a start, I think this is just a practice sesh.

TUTUTUTU MAX VERSTAPPEN

2 yeats later he was in f1

Drives very well, he should try taking it up professionally. Guy has good skills.

More overtakes here than he's had to do in the last 2 years haha

This looks faster than F1 onboards lol

crazy drive... F***....

Lebron James- “yea I was actually at that race, I went up to him and told him one day he’d be an F1 champion. I don’t know what made me say it to him, I just did.”

dam max is 15 here??

Trust me guys, in 10 years time he will be at least triple wdc

If he keeps practicing one day he may become a good driver :p

He's ok

Unless I’m wrong this is not a race it’s practice laps.

Literally 10 minutes from my house

I wonder if Schumacher was still around. Would mick have turned out as good, if not better than max?
