Who is Max Verstappen?

Max Emilian Verstappen, the 2021 and 2022 Formula One World Champions, is a racing driver who is Dutch and Belgian[3]. He was born on September 30, 1997. He races in Formula One for Red Bull Racing while flying the Dutch flag.

Verstappen is the son of Formula One competitor Jos Verstappen and Sophie Kumpen, a racing driver.

He entered Formula One as the youngest driver ever when he was 17 years, 166 days old.

Jos Verstappen and Sophie Kumpen welcomed Max Emilian Verstappen into the world on September 30, 1997 in Hasselt, Belgium. Victoria is his younger sister. When Verstappen's parents divorced when he was a small child, his sister Victoria moved in with their mother while he continued to live with his father.Verstappen has three younger half-siblings from his father: Mila Faye and Jason Jaxx, from his most recent marriage; Blue Jaye, from his second marriage; and Blue Jaye, from his first marriage.

Who are his strongest comptitors?

 

Fernando Alonso

As Zandvoort faced every challenge from the Dutch weather, Fernando Alonso was in customary feisty form. The two-time world champion battled through it all to place Aston Martin back on the podium for the first time since Canada in June and finish just 3.7 seconds behind race winner Max Verstappen. In addition, he completed the lap the fastest. Here is how the vote went.

Lewis Hamilton

The words "Still I Rise" are inscribed on the back of Lewis Hamilton's helmet and tattooed across his shoulders. Ever since shattering expectations with one of the greatest rookie performances in Formula One history in 2007, he has done nothing but rise: surpassed his idol Ayrton Senna for the most pole positions, surpassed Michael Schumacher for the most victories, and then tied the legendary Gerhard Berger for most wins.

Is he the best? Few people would contest his presence in the discourse, and he's doing it in his own unique manner by combining his unrelenting speed with a reluctance to adhere to preconceived notions about what a racing driver should think, look like, or act like.

In Formula One, respect must be earned, but Hamilton—now known as Sir Lewis Hamilton—has it from every one of his competitors. Why? They know that when his visor drops and the lights go out, it's Hammertime regardless of the track, the weather, or the circumstance.

Leclerc

entered Formula One riding a tsunami of enthusiasm. He was born in the Mediterranean paradise of Monaco.

 

On his path to winning the GP3 and Formula 2 championships, this virtually unrivaled driver displayed a dizzying assortment of abilities, including blazing pole positions, dominant victories—even when his car caught fire twice at Silverstone—and the ability to force his way through the field. Leclerc learned how to handle pressure from his back-to-back championship victories, which is another skill that will come in handy in Formula 1 competition.

Leclerc, who made the jump to Formula One in 2018, displayed bursts of lightning-quick speed on Saturdays and racing brilliance on Sundays, pushing his Sauber past its breaking point and earning himself a seat in Ferrari's 2019 race lineup that money can't buy. He will replace Kimi Raikkonen, the Scuderia's most recent world champion.

There, he immediately made a name for himself by competing head-to-head with Sebastian Vettel, the current leader, without fear. A week after a debut F1 victory at Spa, another occurred on Ferrari's revered home field of Monza. The tifosi had discovered yet another new hero, who went on to become the first driver to outperform Vettel in a whole season with the Scuderia, a feat he ruthlessly replicated the following season.

Ferrari struggled in the 2020 and '21 seasons, but Leclerc remained determined to become a legitimate title challenger in 2022. He was the only driver who was able to consistently compete with champion Max Verstappen, earning three victories, 11 podiums, and nine pole positions.

Leclerc is modest and thoughtful as he steps out of the automobile, but he is also on a very personal quest. This promising young driver is competing in memory of his late father Herve and his friend and mentor, the late F1 driver Jules Bianchi.

He is making them both proud, based on the evidence so far.

reasons pushed him to win:

As Formula One enters its summer vacation, there will be sighs of relief from many inside the paddock. A break from a season that has quickly turned into a complete disaster for Max Verstappen.

The world champion now looks to be nearly amusing himself by almost not even thinking about the competition after his victory here.

From grid position six, the Dutchman took the victory. By lap 17 of 44, he had overtaken Red Bull teammate Sergio Pérez and was unstoppable from that point on.

Given that Pérez is driving the same car, his victory margin of 22.3 seconds was an amazing advantage. Verstappen is just simply in a league of his own in this Red Bull, in this season.

In the last third, he showed just how easily he was in charge of the race and, by extension, the season, as he now had a huge 125-point advantage over Pérez.

He was one of the world's most difficult racing circuits, but he was so careless as he blasted around it that he felt at ease enough to engage in some light joking with the team.
