The four-time world champion did not skimp on compliments, not even his own. In fact, he produced some very funny thoughts, which - with great joy - Helmut Marko also joined in!
Max Verstappen said in the moments of joy after the race that he could definitely win the 2024 world championship with McLaren and even with Ferrari. Many asked his boss in amazement how the winner could say such a thing fresh from the race?
“He can say that on that basis, because it is absolutely true. There is no driver who can beat him anymore, only himself, and there is no other driver who can win a championship behind the wheel of a Red Bull. And since he was not driving the best car, it is clear that he would have had a chance of winning the world title with another. It was a difficult and up-and-down season, but I am not sure that in 2025 we will be as lucky... If we can give him a car that is not as temperamental as the one this year, then yes, Max will do it,” - commented Helmut Marko.
What do you think, Verstappen no longer has rivals in other teams and other drivers, in reality could only be himself the real opponent?
