Max Verstappen has achieved three consecutive world championships since 2021.
The rising star of Red Bull has been dominating the world of F1 since the beginning of the 2022 season. According to the current rules, he has proven to be an incredibly skilled driver, and McLaren has made a strong statement about his pursuit of a fourth world championship.
The American has openly expressed his belief that there are several drivers on the current grid who have the potential to win the title in a Red Bull car. He even admitted that if Max Verstappen were driving for any other team, it would have been difficult for him to secure a championship.
Up to this point, the 26-year-old has earned three world championships.
Brown has not held back in his assessment of the reigning world champion. He genuinely believes that there are a significant number of drivers on the current F1 grid who have the ability to win a world championship. From former champions to young talents, the grid is filled with immense skill!
While Zak Brown has somewhat downplayed Max Verstappen’s dominance in F1, he has also suggested that Verstappen’s teammate is not the right competitor to challenge him for the world championship.
After six rounds in the ongoing season, Perez has only accumulated 103 points compared to Verstappen’s 136.
The 2024 F1 season has witnessed three different race winners so far. Ferrari’s driver secured a victory at Albert Park, and McLaren’s racer recently outperformed Verstappen in Miami. With all of this in mind, the ongoing season is proving to be more unpredictable than expected.
The formidable Red Bull team has already had two disappointing performances, which has had significant consequences. Teams like Ferrari and McLaren are on the rise, and there is a good chance that the remaining races from Imola onwards will bring about unexpected surprises. Verstappen and Red Bull cannot afford any mistakes if they want to maintain their lead in the standings.
