The SCARY Truth About Max Verstappen Nobody is Noticing
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 мар 2024
- Nearly three decades ago, Formula 1 driver Ayrton Senna tragically passed away while engaging in his beloved pursuit: racing hard. Despite his unorthodox driving style-criticised by purists of his era for aggressively stabbing the throttle through corners instead of gradually easing into it-Senna dominated the sport. He thrived under intense pressure and adverse weather conditions, amassing an impressive record of 41 first-place finishes and 80 podiums over a decade. Today, there is one driver who embodies Senna's greatness: Max Verstappen.

Max is aggressive. As was Senna, Schumacher, and Lewis in his early years. They don’t award WDC points for being polite. This isn’t little league.
Finally someone understands that
I think Hamilton has just clocked out for the year. He's still aggressive af. Alonso is too.
Well said. Beautifully delivered.
"Show me a nice guy and I'll show you a loser".
But Lewis is still is and Verstappen don't
The funny thing is, Lewis Hamilton’s idol is Ayrton Senna. So in other words, Lewis is a fan of Max Verstappen’s driving skill and style.
But Lewis drove Max of the track at Silverstone and celebrations if he won.
Koele (Mokum) tattoo gap👍
@@daphneschuring5810 I say the same to you as I say to TeamLH about Abu Dabi... it is frigging 3 years ago, stop crying.
but Max is nothing like Senna. Senna had was winning races in an inferior car with WDC as his teammates. Senna and lewis>>>>>>>
You forget his most important period in a inferior car? @mineralwater6736
People that praise Senna really have nothing to say about Verstappen's agressiveness.
Both of them did and do what it takes.
Max is just ruthless, he destroys without being sadistic or aggressive. We need to find this girl named "Ruth", her name means friendship of friendly.
We need more Ruth, and less ruthlessness. Kelly just has to accept that. F1 is a harsh but not ruthless environment. She should know...
Ruth knows.
There hasn't been a more exciting championship, since Schumacher was at Ferrari, then to when Lewis and Max battled.
It was promptly ruined by a colossal blunder from officials. Took a piss on the entire year..
And the trophy Max lifted, is tainted.
I believe Red Bull has bought that trophy
@mortenfrosthansen84 I felt Mercedes were buying their way to even be in that final, but hey different opinions right
@@user-ww9pd2rz4e
It is as boring as ever at the moment.. all you can hope for, is some good battle mid-field. Or defect..
All drivers are prototypical. Imagine hearing about them doing blow and smoking cigarettes.. they'd probably be fired.
It'll probably be a year or two.. depending on the governing body and their decisions
@@mortenfrosthansen84 I don't think many people care what you believe.
I’ve followed F1 since I was a teenager, which means 50+ years. What’s scaring about Max is that he has Senna’s ruthlessness, Prost’s intelligence, Villeneuve’s sensibility with the car, the adaptabllity of Alonso… and the list goes on.
With one difference.
Max doesn’t make mistakes (maybe apart the rookie years).
Ever.
He is PERFECT in any situation in any race.
Tell me who other has achieved that, because l can’t think of any other drivers in the F1 history.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
You are so right about MAX. He will be noted as the best ever!
@@schultzviv But only by objevtive F1 fans.
❤ well said
Damn yall gotta get Verstappen nuts out yall mouth Lewis has more wins more victories and overcame way more adversities you don’t do that just by luck.
Verstappen gets the best out of the car, that is what determines his driving style. With the 2021 Red Bull he was slower on the straights than the Mercedes, so he had to be aggressive in the corners to pass and beat them. Nowadays he doesn't take such risks because they are unnecessary; he can now pass on the straights as well or just drive away from the field from pole position.
This is a good take that deserves more upvotes.
For people that say Max is driving like a robot. That is true because he nowadays takes pole and creates a 25-30 sec gap with nr 2. Enough to switch tyres to set the fastest lap as well. And not showing that he could get a 1 minute or more gap as well. BUT he can also drive like Senna. Remember the rain in Brazil or his bumpercar racing when it is needed. And win those fights almost always.
i remember him spinning in the rain like he did in Turkey and bottled an easy win.
The less you move that wheel the faster your time will be.
@@Uno_Floyddhe does a lot of moving his wheel, doing lots of split second corrections, ur logic is kinda right but kinda wrong

interesting..... but Max Verstappen is Max Verstappen and not Ayrton Senna.
because I wouldn't want Max to end up like Senna😢💔
True words…
RIP all of you that have paid with their lives in motorsport, and let’s hope it doesn’t happen anymore.
but you once said you wish that happened to Lewis how hypocritical of you.
@@mineralwater6736 liar!!!
@@mineralwater6736 toxic little lying boi you are arent you . just read some comments you wrote , pretty sad if you are an adult . work on it , because lewis is on the decline and your f1 fandom days are counted , what you gonna do ?
Yess so sad 😢😢😢
There is no top driver of all time. At most there is a top driver 'per era' if you want to differentiate between the different racing eras or 'until now' if you want to throw all of them on one large heap. Ultimately there will always be a next top driver.
I always like to say "Goat" can be singular and plural, in the case of motorised sports that change with new advancements in technology, it should always been seen as plural. (F1,2,3.. MotoGP, Indy, Rally etc)
Totally agree . . . actually the CAR that all of these GOAT racers drove, has to be considered and put into the era's context too.
Well said
Nobody says best of all time, greatest of all time (GOAT), etc, and means they will be the best forever. So your comment was kinda pointless. Sorry, but the comment was as captain obvious as it gets. Ofc a new greatest of all time is always around the corner, maybe in 1 year, 5 years, or 30 years. Heck if F1 still exists maybe even in 100 years. Nobody ever implies there wont be another, and even more so people also say "one of the greatest of all time" or "one of the goats" implying there are more than 1 and usually because of different eras. You can't know how much Senna would have pushed his racing with todays technology, etc.
That’s basically the same with tennis too
in senna's era there was no internet and no british press to rile the fans up like they do now . senna will look down feeling good about that . if senna was just starting now , he wouldve got demonised by the brits more then verstappen and redbull
Very well said
Very true, Max is not only fighting the other drivers but also the English press.
You're not even worthy to mention Senna's name
Don't like Brits ? Go back to your camel racing
And he would have received way more hate than Lewis had because of people like you.
@@mineralwater6736 people like me ? explain please
Considering the price Max paid growing up, I think he fully deserves his success, and I wish him a good life.
Max was eager to pay that price.
How much did he pay
@@johnnyvaldez3015he didn't pay money, the original commenter is talking about max's intense training that his father put him through. it was way more intense than any other driver had when they were kids/teenagers.
Alonso belongs in the conversation as well. Had he had better luck regarding teams, he'd have more championships than Lewis (not that Lewis isn't close). That's one of the problems with F1--it's so much more the car than the driver and there are too many variables to consider who's the "best" (and who really cares--as long as the racing's good, which isn't always the case)...
Thank you for pointing this out. For 20 years I've considered Raikkonen to be one of the greats, only to realize in later years that he's one tier below Alonso (who I btw disliked strongly during his earlier years). KR7 is a monster and a legend in his own right, but Alonso, man is he on another level
Alonso is cool now, but throughout his career he wasn’t. Not getting the team behind him and such. No one doubts Alonso’s driving skill, but that’s just enough.
8 points away from 5 title
These comparisons are so stupid... in 1993/4 they raced like 15-16 races per season, today it's like 22 + sprintraces...
So that means in the old era the drivers can rest more than now bc thats 6/9 races ( weeks ) more then old era so its more work
you obviously didn't watch the video or just sleepy j
No, but your comment was super stupid. The amount of races changes nothing about a comparison
@@GreedRuinsEverything mine?
That's why I'm back to F1 🤩 when Senna died I've lost interest. But one day I saw Max driving and I saw Senna.. gosh. Some years later he is just something else like Senna. God save him safe! 🙏🚀
I agree, there are also two drivers that are also more or less the same, they Both complain about that was their corner when someone else was overtaking them. They both were confronted with a better racingdriver….
So what was the SCARY part that was teased in the video title?
Still haven't figured out how Fangio survived so many WCs in such a deadly era .............
Plot armor
way fewer gps per year to be champion
Because he was the best driver of his era
Back then if you had a crash you probably only had one crash because you didn't survive
So not only was he fast but he also stayed out of trouble
I guess idk I wasn't alive in the 50s lole
I can't compare them as I was around a half year old when Senna died. But what I can see from Max's career, he's something else. His determination to do what he wants and outperform the car is something I've never seen anywhere else.
The big turning point was his crash in Monaco FP3 2018. After this race the results just changed as at the snap of a finger. Since then he finished outside of top 5 only 8 times in 119 races, excluding DNFs. That's just mindblowing. Doesn't matter if he has technical problems, puncture, half of the car missing, he's there. He is able to face any odds thrown at him at the racetrack and deliver a result.
Another turning point was, I think, his win in Brazil 2019. Since then he wasn't on podium in only 6 races he finished of 85 races. And only in Turkey 2020 it was due to the lack of pace and driver mistake (and partly in Brazil 2022). In the other instances it was damage or bad track for the car (Singapore). Brazil 2019 was the point where he completely stopped doing mistakes in the races. You can probably count all mistakes he has done since then on your fingers.
Last turning point was Baku 2023 where he lost to Pérez and supposedly was furious and was overheard in paddock saying to his dad (I think) that he's never going to loose to Pérez ever again and boom, he has won almost everything since then.
If this isn't being one of the greatest drivers of all times, then I don't know what is.
Todays' cars hardy break... he had a major failure (ONE) in 2.5 years... back in the days, and until 10-15 years ago at least, cars would often break, have major technical problems, and you would not possibly be able to win 19 races out of 22, merely out of probability and statistical luck. Vettel won between 2009 and 2013 with a super RedBull (and many, too many, irregular twists to the rules, like the flexible front wing), so did Hamilton until 2021, and Schumacher during the Ferrari years. In the 80s, drivers were driving cars without electronic controls, manual gears and entirely mechanical parts that would 1) be susceptible to technical failure 2) be unforgiving with mistakes. You could barely start a car, let alone keep it on track... today's cars are probably easier to drive than a Formula 2 car, thanks to grip, braking power, tyres and technology, but what is more difficult than in the past, is managing the many variables and strategy during the race. Back in the days, lap times could vary also by 2-2.5 seconds, based on fuel, tyre consumption and moments of the race. During the turbo power era, qualifying engines only lasted a few laps and had 1200 HP, while racing engines were made to last only 300 km and had 6-700 HP. So, comparisons are impossible... yet, back in the days, if you drove like Senna 1 cm away from the protections in Montecarlo, you were either crazy, or a driving God. Verstappen, Hamilton and Schumacher (as well as Alonso) are exceptional talents who would have certainly shined in all eras, but what Senna, Prost, Mansell, Piquet, and before them, Lauda, Hunt, Stewart, Icks, all the way to Fangio did, is something we cannot even conceive today. Watch "Weekend of Champion" by Roman Polanski, to understand what these icons risked every sunday. There was no place for second line drivers like today, carried in by the sponsors or rich families, those that were on track risked their life every Sunday and some of them did pay with it. Including Ayrton Senna, who, independently of the era, reached the divine. Watch the "lap of gods" in Montecarlo, 1988. And the victory in Interlagos only with 1st and 6th gear left, for the last laps... or the first victory in the rain at Estoril with the Lotus, or at Donington in 1993, with a car that was 2 seconds slower per lap than the Active Suspension Williams of Mansell and Patrese. I have watched formula 1 for 35 years... tomorrow we have 30 years of Ayrton's death. There's a reason why thousands of people, 30 years later, still recall him as one of us all. He was divine. He was special. And noone can compare. And he paid with his life.
It's hard to compare racedrivers from different era's. In the past there where shorter seasons with less races. Carreers where shorter and it was considerably more dangerous. If you had a major chrash, it was probably your last. Of course that influeced the racing too. I find it impossible to say anyone being the best of all time. One thing is for sure though. There is a very small group of people who qualify as one of the great ones. Max Verstappen certainly does.
Max will never compare to Senna, different era and style of car, but he definitely has the hunger, aggression and ability to win that put him where he is now, that's the only comparison I see between Max and Ayrton
Max is better than senna. No disrespect to the legend but max is better. We'll see it is 10 years
I'm Dutch, and having waited all my life for a Dutch driver to win an F1 race, I'm about as biased as can be. Didn't care for Senna as a driver and a person either back then, but I can see why people compare these two. In retrospect I have to say that Senna is a lot better that I thought then. But I'm glad that Max is around in this time because there's no shortage of content these days. Compare that to getting just the highlights on tv back in the day.
They are indeed similar drivers Id like to see the simulation side by side with both cars on a track like when F-1 does it for comentary durring race days. I think the lines will beso very close on most the tracks. Would have to adjust speeds sue to the variation in performance of the cars but it would be cool to watch.
Really difficult to compare Senna and Max... but I believe Senna still stands out because of his incredible skill under rain. When the track conditions were bad, Senna was able to win despite of the equipment disadvantages.
Brazil 2016
Senna and Verstappen are actually quite different, both in their approach and driving style.
Senna was a long corner driver who had absurdly good car control and feel for the limit, Max is a short corner driver with a more manipulative and supple driver style, like Alain Prost.
Senna was also an all or nothing kind of driver, Max isn't always like this, he goes 100% when he feels that it's his only way to win the race, but when his car his superior, he's actually quite careful.
Excellent
true
Now a days MAX is alone, i mean at the front🤟,keep rocking
That is a perfect analyses mate.I have been saying that since 2016 after the Brazilian GP
I'm a big fan of Senna, to me what elevates him from any driver is his charisma, an aura that no other driver had or has. If he had survived Imola he could have potentially been a 6 time world champion. In terms of driving skill, IMO Max will go down in history as the best driver ever. He is simply a machine, makes no mistakes, if there's a 1% chance of an overtake he will take it and make it work.
Max and overtakes ? When ? In your imagination
7:05 that hug between Senna and Fangio: Senna took a step down of the podium, and said to him, "no-one can be above you / you are the nr. 1" or sth like that.. Juan Manuel FANGIO was Ayrton's idol. I love them both, they will never be equaled, different times and different standards for fitness, safety and show. Great video, great analysis, great investigation. Cheers! Saludos desde Argentina.
I totally agree with this video. I believe, Senna would be proud :D
His ability to maintain track time for entire race distance
Only a robot can achieve that precision 😳
Every other legend has his ups and downs but Max is on another level for sure
Max is just Max, best not compare one driver with another, as different eras would call for different skills, driving styles, etc. You can only say that Max can take it to a an absolute high when needed (Monaco 2023 Q3, Saudi Arabia 2021 Q3) over one lap, is very fast in the race especially under mixed conditions and is tremendously fast whilst good with his tyres and just doesn't seem to make mistakes. To be that consistent and on such a high level, is perhaps something we haven't seen from anyone. And that makes Max unique and in league of his own.
Het is in deze tijd heel anders; het is racen in een geavanceerde computer en tijdens het racen instellingen veranderen om het optimale resultaat te halen uit de auto 👌
Ja maar geen ABS, geen traction control, geen active suspension en geen blown diffuser zoals in het verleden. Het enige wat ze wel hebben is stuurbekrachtiging (maar da's tegenwoordig ook een must met de G-krachten die ze in sommige bochten verduren (soms tegen de 6G) + break balance en differentieel instellingen waar ze mee kunnen spelen.
The cars were different in Senna"s era. I don't know how Max would've performed in Senna's cars, but I know for sure Senna would be in chidren's playground in today's era
Absolutelly agree, Max Verstappen is the only driver who could be compared with legendary Senna as has both, the talent and charisma . I stopped watching F1 when my idol Ayrton Senna died in 1994, but started watching again when saw Max winning famous and legendary last lap overtaking Hamilton.
Yeah, when Hamilton was on dead tyres, and the race director decided to ignore all the rules and it should have finished under a safety car. Yes that's so hard, isn't it.
@@Stig10001 "If you don't go for a gap that exists, you are not a race driver" If you don't go for a victory that you see, it's the same thing as giving up.
I wonder if Verstappen would be interested in helping develop a road car in the same way Senna helped out in the creation of the Honda NSX.
If Max were to help create an "affordable" car, the car could become something really special!
Senna: **Absolutely dominating with his driving style**
F1 Fans: "YouR'e nOT dOOooIin iT riGHt!!!"
Still waiting for the scary part
I like that Max learned not idolising no one.
I fear no men ,only my father,max ones said .
And isn't it funny that 2 of the best drivers ,growing up with a, Gestapo like father.
One can indeed compare the driving style but that's where the comparisons should end as the two drivers are poles apart
I would say he is more of a combination of Schumacher and Senna than just Senna, Senna had a habbit of making rash decisions and still being overly aggressive when battling for position while also making errors on occasions, Max has rounded the rough edges and isn't as aggressive as his early years but is still among if not the most aggressive when he wants to be, his race craft would only be behind Alonso's who in terms of when and where to place a car when battling no one has ever been better.
Now the Schumacher part of the equation is his consistency, want/need to dominate and their absolute determination and work rate (testing/sim work), because of this only Verstappen has come close to replicating and probably even surpassing what Schumacher was able to achieve in terms of being able to minimize errors but also have a minimum performance level higher than almost all the current fields performance on their average and even good days, on his "bad" days he still wins races, yes the car can/does play a big part in that but we have seen from other greats even from Lewis, Senna, Prost etc. that when they weren't quite performing at 100% they would lose races in cars that they probably should have won in, Max and Schumacher rarely did/do and both won many races in disadvantageous grid positions and in cars which were probably 2nd sometimes 3rd best in the field in those seasons. That is something Schumacher and Max share which none of the other greats can claim, the amount of wins in cars which were not as good as their rivals, like Schumacher in 2001 (arguably 2000) to 2004, Max now has the best car in the field (or one which in his hands is) and is unbeatable.
People also need to remember that Lewis at arguably his best in 2021 lost to Max who was in his first championship battle in any series he competed in, which speaks of Max' composure and focus and he's only improved since.
Max is THE complete package, it is he and Michael standing at the top, no other drivers were/are as complete drivers.
The thing with Senna and Schumacher is that they both did not shy away from foul play when trying to achieve their goals. Verstappen has not shown that behaviour yet, although he is ruthless on track.
What I like about Verstappen racing against Hamilton is something that we did not have the opportunity to witness in the past, unfortunately due to the fatal 1994 Imola accident Senna had when he died trying to stay ahead of Schumacher. The reason why I say this is because Hamilton is like Schumacher, whereas Verstappen is like Senna. This gives us a glimpse of how a Schumacher VS Senna rivalry would have been like. Hamilton is the new Schumacher and Verstappen is the new Senna
I don’t think Hamilton is like Schumacher, Schumacher had this I do whatever I have to do to win mentality. I don’t see something like that with Lewis. Hamilton is more like an Alain Prost, a bit more calculated although he also didn’t mind playing dirty to win.
@@nielsgilles4147 Hamilton is a unique driver and he has the best qualities of all the greats before him. Hamilton is 60% Schumacher, 20% Prost and the remaining 20% Hakkinen. Best of all worlds. The reason why I compare him to Schumi is his ability to be consistently delivering even though he might not be dominating at that time
I fully agree to what Berger said about it. Both drivers can/could push more out of the car then any other driver on the grid, in that they were equal exceptional. What makes Max so amazing/unique is that it doesn't cost him any effort at all. He could drive on that level flawless for 4 races a day, 7 days a week if it were physically possible. Yes, Max, trough sim racing, has the ability to train this to perfection unlimited, the question is, would Senna do that if he had the option at the time? The answer to that, most will agree to is no. Max, when it comes to this is a machine.
Why this offends people, Senna had way more charisma, you looked up to him, while you could see Max more like one of the guys you do sim races with..... just a lot faster then you ever be.
In a less dominant car you need to take more risk. To blame only Verstappen for crashes is having team LH glasses on.
Verstappen in a different galaxy. Maybe he is born on the planet Krypton.
He was born on the planet of Hasselt, in the constellation of Belgium.
@@marcelschellekens6386 His father, Jos Verstappen, was born in Montfort (Limburg) in the Netherlands,
He married with a Belgian wife, Sophie Kumpen, who was also a former kart racing driver, and Max was born from this marriage.
The fans of Max do still gather in Montfort in a dancing called Zaal Housmans (which has ties with my late mother who was also born in Montfort), the spiritual home of the Verstappens for many.
Although Max never officially lived in the Netherlands, from his double nationality he kept the Dutch nationality because his spirits were more in the Netherlands as he told having his friends and father's family there. Since he started competing in F1 he lives in Monaco and has a relation with Kelly Piquet since 2020, she is the daughter of the former F1 driver Nelson Piquet.
he has a faster carb on the straights,,,fact
@@Tom-Lahaye👌🏼
Jos Verstappen put his racepistol into his belgium wife so everything what came or come out is 1000%dutch even max was born in the spaceshuttel !!
This just MIGHT develop into a good channel .......... KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK .......... 8 minutes max is sufficient ................. there are MANY newcomers to F1 .... most are a waste of my time
I would say 90 %. Ai generated clkickbait shit
We shouldn’t compare drivers to ones that existed in a different era. The machines aren’t the same. Drivers would adapt.
They are the greatest of their time.
Exactly the correct answer!!! Imagine Senna trying to drive Fangio's machine, or Fanjio trying to control a modern Red Bull.
I've noticed this even before he turned a wheel in F1
Different era or not what Max is doing right now we haven't seen before it's an accomplishment and that should be noted
These max/senna comparisons get more amusing every time, keep it up 😂
Kimi Raikkonen only competed in 23 single seater races before He was in F1 NOW THAT IS TALENT.
Max only drove F3 for 4 months before he signed his F1 contract.
And he drove in a "Van Amersfoort Racing", which was not a superior car at all.
the one thing i will say is vastly different is the car, modern F1 when compared to older gen, are somewhat more stable, i mean watch the steering inputs on max vs Senna, Prost, Schumacher or Alesi of the day.
they wrestled the cars as much as everything else.
modern f1 drivers also comment on this as well
modern f1 cars are much heavier
It's logic that the cars of now are much safer then the cars back in 80's, 90's. But with that also comes that drivers are much more agressive now, because they know they will be alright. With that, F1 of 40 years ago was much more fun and thrilling to watch then now.
Max Verstappen is like Michael Schumacher literally
Hell no he isnt
Dirty tricks done dirt cheap aint what Max is about.
Anyone who didn;t see Max was a Senna style driver from day 1 wasn't paying attention.
I have a feeling he never talks about Ayrton because his father probably wasn't a fan
@@felineprime4228 Max and rb are both dirty cheaters.
No, he is not in my opinion. Despite Schumacher's undeniable legacy, Max and Ayrton are unique sort of drivers.
Can't believe people still aren't talking about Roland that also passed away on the same weekend and Senna
Another side of Max that ia similar to Ayrton is the mental edge he had on his rivals. With Ayrton, if you conceded just once in wheel to wheel racing, he knew you would concede everytime. The same goes with Max. Look what happened with Lewis when Lewis decided in Silverstone he wasn't going to back off. They collided.
Give the new guys the old cars to make your point even stronger then... every driver belongs to his era, nothing to compare apart that they race/raced in F1!
All 26 on the grid from any F1 season from 88-94ish would all finish above all current 'F1' drivers since they learnt to drive in harsh vehicles. Today would seem too easy for them.
Verstappen has a lot in common with senna, but he is a copy of schumacher for driving style, strenghts and character in and outside the track.
Verstappen is less of a dirty driver than Schumacher though.
I did love Schumi, but he could be a complete d**k with his gamesmanship and showboating sometimes.
@@nathangamble125 When there is a goal, schumacher, verstappen and senna try/tried everything to get it. And, for me, it's a strenght.
@@special-one05-10 no, if u must cheat or use dirty tricks to win, it shows nothing more, nothing less than ur weakness

Why is there a background track that sounds like choir. It is like a constant haaaaaaaaa noice.
the only have this in commun is these (qoute Senna) ;You should know that by being a racing driver you are under risk all the time. Being a racing driver means you are racing with other people and if you no longer go for a gap that exists you are no longer a racing driver because we are competing, we are competing to win and the main motivation to all of us is to compete for the victory, it is not to conserve for a fifth or sixth place.
for the rest they are 2 differentdrivers...rip Legend Senny ....untill today i stillhave tears for hes passing
Berger said he puts Max at the same level as Senna. You are putting words in the mouth of the man.
Until a few years ago Max was the Wild Child of Formula One, taking gaps that didn't exist and causing havoc. Schumi and Prost both deliberately took out rivals. Max is ready to risk a collision but he won't deliberately cause one. There's a belief that only the top drivers are this aggressive. The TV cameras only follow the leaders. But back in the pack there are plenty of crashes among the backmarkers. I wonder if the myth of the Gentleman Driver was ever true. Nige and Piquet generally showed good track etiquette and I respect them for that. I think that when Max leans on other drivers if more of them leaned back, after a few DNFs he might learn.
I think Verstappen should be referenced to Jim Clark. No one else should be.
Can you please give timestamps for the parts where you explain what is scary, and what nobody is noticing?
Something about the racing nowadays doesn't feel as impactful as it used to be. I am not sure what it is exactly, but I'd hazard a guess that DRS plays a role in making it too easy for faster cars to carve through the field today.
Also, cars are too reliable now, so there is more of a feeling of inevitability when someone like Max is out in front, whereas years ago his car would have had a good chance of exploding which would give other teams a chance to catch up.
The amount of championships that were decided at literally the final race were much higher until the 2000s when it seems like it is mostly blowouts now.
But I could be wrong with my ideas, it's just what my initial thoughts are about it. I think Max is the Senna/Schumacher of today regardless.
You have The Hamilton Area
You have The Max Area
...And ,You Have the 50s Real Madrid Area
* 80s 90s FORMULA ONE ! Were the BEST EVER !!
Comparing Senna to Crashtappen is one of the most ludicrous thing I’ve seen on the internet.
To compare a toddler who spent the majority of his early days in F1 crashing right, left and center to the point of earning the name Crashtappen and then being asked almost every single press conference about his tendency to have a lot of accidents to Senna is mind boggling. This fraud has literally no competition. The real competition he had was so crushing that he had to have the FIA intervene on his behalf to hand him the trophy and he went back to his mommy sobbing and telling her that if he has to compete at this level again, he won’t be able to make it.
The touchy dutchie cheerleaders have no shame.
I guess Warwick spoke on behalf of all of you when he referred to the Crashtappen as the great white hope.
Having a black driver as the most successful driver of all time kills a lot of people inside. The trauma is real.
personally they both almost play the angle up that the other one is dangerous etc and it actually is an advantage to both. Max probably misses the danger of Lewis since the merc has fallen away since 2021.
Even after 30 years of Senna's death people are still comparing him to another driver to know who is the best f1 driver of all time, it's because there is no doubt about it, Senna is the GOAT.
Finally someone brought this up, Verstappen reminds me of Senna so much, he`s got the balls to push both himself and the car to their limits, aggressive when needed, and got that racing hunger to be the best and beat the best, and most importantly Max is consistent and very very rarely makes mistakes.
Yeah they are both very aggressive drivers and Senna obviously crashed into Prost on purpose in order to win the championship, but people don't criticize Senna the way they criticize Verstappen. I think Senna's charisma, especially given the way he died, gave him a god-like status where he cannot really be criticized. Anyone suggesting that Verstappen could be better or even on the same level as Senna, would be considered blasphemy.
Prost punted Senna so on that score it's 1:1.
@@tuesla2010 yes sometimes racers feel that they have been injusticed and then they decide to take justice into their own hands. I know Verstappen felt that as well when Hamilton took him out of the race in Silverstone and was not penalized adequately. Schumacher was disqualified/banned from 3 races in 1994 for what amounts to nothing really, but people only focus on his crash with Damon Hill in the final race, if Schumacher wasn't banned for 3 races, Hill would't have even had a chance to challenge for the season. But because of Senna's charisma we are okay with him crashing into others, but not at for Schumacher or Verstappen.
Max Verstappen is the reincarnation of Senna
"The 2022 and 2023 seasons were a bit calm for Verstappen showing more caution while fighting for positions" lmfao you don't need to be cautious when no one's in front of you or can catch up to you 😂
To all Max young fans... there is nothing to compare as Senna was winning in a mclafen with williams and there was a trench between those cars. Mclaren was analog car when williams was heavily loaded with electronic aids and also electronic active suspension. They were so into electronic everything that they were unable to build a compettitive car in 1994 when FIA banned most of electronics aids.
So there is nothing to compare, most of the drivers say that they are scared of driving those old cars with almost none down force and without automatic gearboxes... but still much much power ....
So try to recognise what made Senna name...
He did almost 1minute advantage in Monaco in a race every one at that time looked at this and was shocked how is he able to do it in a car that does not perform that well in other races.
Max is someehat similiar to Senna in finding control over a car where most wont... like driving on the dirt side of the turn or the drift mode ... that is extreeme feeling of his car... so he has a gift that is for sure. He is a pretender to beat Senna but just not yet better. I hope he will evolve more and give us a good fun races in the future.
What came out with Senna is that there were obvious connections inside f1 and fia... and it steyed that way... what we have seen even more in latest years.
Max is a beast, and his first title against Mercedes went straigth to the history books, his driving to the very limit was unparalleled. But after that his car become so dominant it's very difficult to think of Max as the new Senna, because Senna used to battle. Max doesn't.
It's sad because he is becaming a Hamilton and a Vettel: a pilot who wins effortless thanks to his car. I hope this changes before it's too late and we can see Max battling, sweating, exploring the limits against other cars and, of course... winning
Diferent cars man,diferent eras!!!!Senna have the most difficult baby!!!!
What is this thumbnail 😂😂😂
Like I said just can't compare between different era.... king of his era👊👊👊👊👊
He stabbed the throttle because it kept the turbo spooled up removing lag... I can't watch more than 20 seconds due to the creator speaking as an authority but knowing jack. 🙂
He was gifted his first F1 championship, helps build the confidence. He's been selected...
"Gifted" he was given 7 points in Abu Dhabi Hamilton was given 25 in silverstone
Only car gives him the edge, give Leclerc, Hamilton and verstapen simmilar bolides and we'll see then what happens :P
But could Max drive all the cars Ayrton drove which were very difficult to drive? Mm maybe. Drive like in Monaco 1988?
Max has the most twitchy setup of all the drivers. Sensitivity on 100%. And he makes it looks as if the car is on rails.
Like Monaco 2023........
Nope. Nobody can. If you look at the cars Senna was driving they were dancing all over the shop in a straight line. That RB is glued to the bloody floor. That's why Senna will always be significantly better.
@@Stig10001 Yup thats a good point. I want to see Max doing it with manual gear stick & everything else. No computer driving. ;)
Interesting that when Marko states that Verstappen is "an exceptional talent that only comes along once in decades" he's comparing Max to Senna and Schumacher is never mentioned... This is also the only video I have watched that recognises Sennas tenure at McLaren overlapping with another "great driver", Prost. Something that neither MS or MV have had to worry about. Still, Verstappen still has a lot of years and achievements left in him. Who knows what the future will hold
Senna was great but dont forget noone did what FANGIO did....so we need more Fangio Documentaries he was and is the best driver ever.
Max went from karting to formula racing ….. 🤯🤯
In that list of greats you mention at the end, not sure if a hot take or not, but I don’t place Hamilton in that list tbh. Don’t get me wrong, Hamilton is obviously an insanely good driver, but idk. Being in the merc for so long gave him the numbers to put him in that list, but skill wise, I don’t believe he truly is in that calibre.
In my mind…
How would be Max driving like Senna did with slick tires on wet day…
Don’t quite sure which race was, but there’s one occasion Senna had no wet tires, went to pit again and the only option was to fit again the already used ones to finish the race…
We no see teams and drives nowadays taking crazy risks or gambling like before!
they're all relentless sharks if need be
Every so often there will be someone who just understands the car and how to get the best out of it. Then there are a few of those who seem to instinctively know how to race. I can remember watching Jim Clark race where he might have lapped everyone else on track but at the chequered flag seemed as if he just been out for an afternoon drive. Senna, Schumacher, Hamilton and now Verstappen all started out a little rough around the edges but quickly made it look effortless. The trick is spotting the next talent - which could be female - who will display the same qualities....but they probably arent racing yet.
that thumbnail is so fucking cursed
What's with the Superman III thumbnail?
Senna started racing at a late age if I recall
yes for sure nobody ever was as quick into F1 as the 17 year old Max and when he drove his first gp in the RB he won totaly unreal
So what is the scary issue??
it's a clickbait issue!
With the new 2026 F1 rules there will be a return of turbo lag and I wonder if Max will be able to handle the turbo lag like Ayrton did in his time, or maybe even better.
With the increased battery capacity a driver can choose to compensate for the turbo lag with a decent boost of electrical power. Heck; that's very likely the whole reason to bring back the turbo lag.
Also; wasn't that implemented already? IIRC the electrical boost to the turbo has been removed already so they should already be experiencing the lag.
The Best 1 Max Verstappen 2 A Senna 3 M Schoemacher 💯
😂😂
Senna was fantastic, probably the best in his day but he was on the way down with the emergence of Schumacher. Had he lived he would only have won three WDC.
Its not unlike what we see today With Hamilton and Max.
Well toto, hamilton doesnt go by win it or bin it, he goes by win it or f the other drivers race and still win it with. 5 second penalty. He sure changes his driving style and forgets what an understeer is, but the thing is it is not only against verstappen 😂
max hasn't been outscored by a team mate in 100% of the seasons they were in the same car - senna was
He was outscored by Riccardio, and the only reason Verstappen outscored him in one season is because Riccardio had 8 DNF's.
@@Stig10001
and????
so you are suggesting my post was 100% correct?
@@nelsonschumacher7956 No, unless you have reading/understanding difficulties, I'm suggesting it's shit.
@@Stig10001
so who exactly has outscored max every year they were team mates - you have said it isn't ricciardo, so who was it???
a very simple question, and if you cannot give me an answer, my original post was correct . . . thank you
Compared max with senna is just an insult! Senna was a heroe on his country, he did so much for yours, verstappen is just a fast driver
You should first find those who is playing Piquet, Schumacher, Prost and Mansell on Max's career screenplay. Then, and only then, you may compare him to Senna...
...and maybe ,just may be...
The incidents in Imola aren't related, nothing from one incident lead to the other. Max is not even close to Senna. Stop reading into things and making your own connections. Max is a big baby when things don't go his way and throws his toys out the pram. Senna was a gentleman and Senna achieved a lot in 10 years than anyone else.
You can't compare the two, different eras, different machinery.
No Way !
