What F1 Team PRINCIPALS THINK of Max Verstappen 

Crazy statement mate. I saw a pic of Michael today driving a Ferrari, chatting on a cellphone with his tiny dog in his lap. I’ve seen Max driving around in his Aston Marin Valkyrie. They all show off, just because Lewis wears crazy fits doesn’t make him any worse to me anyway. LH the goat until someone gets more titles than him. He could have more than 7. He came in his rookie season and lost by a point and that’s on the team. He’s only ever limited by his cars ability. Just like Max just like Michael, like all the greats.

@@jackmehof247May be good for you to remember that Hamilton is not the only 7 time WDC.

So the car is great?

Agreed

@@jackmehof247 It was not the team's fault that Hamilton lost by a point. In the second to last race in China he made a driver's mistake by overshooting the pitlane into the gravel. It was his own fault.

Amen thank you

Preach. People love to hate him, but we are witnessing something one of a kind

That’s a great comment, right there! Couldn’t agree with you more!

@@canadianbreeze8733 I disagree. Max isn't into that. I personally hope that Max will take it to the eight title. Only his father could persuade him.

@@canadianbreeze8733 Max has already stated numerous times he doesn't care for records and will only be in F1 for as long as its fun to him. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't extend his contract any longer and goes to WEC

The 2026 engine chance will have a major role in his career. If RB manages to get a top3 car I think he can pull it off. Max himself is good for 0.2 a lap compared to others. He doesn’t need a dominant car he needs a competitive car. One could even argue Max makes a competitive car look dominant.

​@@nocompromessoI totally agree with you

the car is incredible

It depends more on how much longer can RB deliver and Newey will prolong his retirement. I don’t have any doubt on Max’s capability to respond to a good package

@@thecompanioncube4211 If RB becomes hopeless Max can elbow out any driver on the grid and get the fastest car, that's how absurd this situation is

😂😂😂😂 You’re deluded. Do you really think the F1 grid would allow that to happen? Especially if he stays with RB? The reality is things change quickly in F1 and eras of dominance from particular drivers and teams are no different. He has until 2026 to consolidate his position before the new FIA regulations are enforced; however, everyone knows (even now) RB’s cheating with their constructor’s budget is toeing a very fine line so they’ll have to hope Mercedes and Ferrari don’t get their act together before then. Given that RB haven’t given him a proper number 2 driver to challenge him (unlike what Lewis had with Rosberg) he should be able to get at least a couple more championships. Nonetheless, Max is undoubtedly a talent but isn’t comparable at this moment to the likes of Hamilton and Schumacher. Lewis was the youngest ever F1 champion in its history (before Vettel) and if not for the likes of Räikkönen (in 2007) and Rosberg (in 2016) as well as the blatant racist cheating that took place by the FIA (via Masi) in 2021 he could already have 10 F1 championships. For me that is nothing short of mind-blowing. I thank the F1 gods for bringing Max in because it would have been a very boring sport recently without his challenges to Lewis. Granted this doesn’t take anything away from the past efforts of Rosberg and Vettel too. Even in the post-Hamilton era (and to a lesser extent post-Vettel era) the likes of Norris, Russell, Leclerc, Albon, and Piastri will challenge Max. He won’t have it all his way. I’d like to see how RB fair with a car not just designed for Max’s driving style along with a teammate who can truly compete with him as a number 2. This hasn’t happened since Riccardo tbh. I genuinely think he’d struggle with Sainz or Norris as his partner.

@@NateDogg8870 If max drives for another 15 years, he would top 10 titles. No doubt. And what the F do you think teams are doing when making a car? The car is made to be fast, and the best driver get the best out of it, like Max. No shit the car is for his driving style.. So sick of hearing that. And Max is doing things Lewis hasnt done, and you sit here and make it sound like hes a mid field driver. You better snap back to reality.

@@gollese chill out dude. I know you have a hard on for max but it’s just a sport after all 😂😂😂

​@@NateDogg8870Bro no offence your talking like Hamilton had Epic battles for his championships 😂 But the truth is he didn't have to fight for many of his titles "Valteri its James" 😂😂😂 And forgetting Hamilton shouldn't have evan won his first one 🤔 Seemingly forgot to add that to your script didn't you 😂😂😂

@@leemartin3429 man I love trolling. People come out with the most random shit 😂😂😂😂

Max has already started the process of eclipsing Vettel - he has more race wins than Vettel.
