After clinching his third World title in F1 2023 and achieving a remarkable 19 wins out of 22 races, Verstappen is now positioning himself as one of the greatest in F1 history.
According to Sky F1 pundit Brundle, Verstappen is already in that elite category, drawing parallels between Verstappen and the legendary Senna in terms of on-track skills. When asked if Verstappen resembles Senna, Brundle affirmed, “Yeah, he is. In terms of his car control and that sixth sense of where the grip is, what to do with it, and how to salvage a car that’s heading off in the wrong direction.”
