Four-Time Champion: Max Verstappen’s Legacy Grow

Max Verstappen has made history, joining an elite group of Formula 1 drivers as a four-time world champion. The Dutchman clinched his latest title at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, cementing his place among the sport’s greats. At just 27 years old, Verstappen is now a name to be mentioned alongside icons like Alain Prost, Sebastian Vettel, and Juan Manuel Fangio.

A Season of Excellence

This season, Verstappen faced challenges beyond having the fastest car. With McLaren emerging as a fierce competitor after the summer break, Verstappen still managed to dominate. Despite tough fights and moments where his car wasn’t the best on the grid, his skill, consistency, and determination shone through.

Former world champions and F1 pundits praised Verstappen’s exceptional performance. Jenson Button admired his calm approach and ability to deliver under pressure, calling his Brazil victory a standout moment. Sky Sports’ Martin Brundle highlighted Verstappen’s ability to excel even on difficult days, a trait of only the greatest champions.

Respect from Rivals

Verstappen’s rivals also recognized his achievement. Lewis Hamilton called him a “deserving champion,” and Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc praised his “amazing season.” Lando Norris, Verstappen’s closest competitor this year, acknowledged the Dutchman’s remarkable consistency and focus.

Even Verstappen’s teammate, Sergio Pérez, lauded his extraordinary performance: “This has been the best season I’ve ever seen from a driver. Max made the difference so many times, even when the car wasn’t the fastest.”

Among the Greats

With his fourth title, Verstappen joins legends like Alain Prost and Sebastian Vettel. Prost, known as “The Professor,” claimed four championships during the 1980s and early 1990s, and Vettel achieved his four-title streak with Red Bull from 2010 to 2013. Verstappen now stands alongside them, marking his era in F1 history.

Looking Ahead

Red Bull team principal Christian Horner described Verstappen as “outstanding all year,” adding that his achievements place him among the sport’s all-time greats. At 27, Verstappen shows no signs of slowing down. If Red Bull continues to provide a competitive car, many believe the Dutchman could challenge the records of seven-time champions Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton.
