Max Verstappen has annihilated his competition in recent years at the pinnacle of motor racing. Since the dawn of the new regulation at the start of the 2022 season, no one has been able to stand up against the Dutchman’s might. He has been simply brilliant, and the former F1 driver, Felipe Massa, has even gone on to say that Verstappen will dominate F1 until 2026.
Felipe Massa has been very impressed with the exploits of Max Verstappen and ardently feels the latter is fully ready to take the world of F1 by storm with his stupendous pace and exceptional racing skills behind the wheel of an F1 car. The current set of regulation are locked in until the end of 2025, and after that, new regulation will arrive from 2026 onward.
While shedding light on the same, Massa told Marca, “I think that until 2026, when we will have the regulation change, Verstappen wins everything. I think we will have equal regulations and Verstappen is superior, Red Bull is superior. So until 2026, we can expect Verstappen to win all the titles.”
“So, logically, we have a big change, with everything new, new car, so we have to understand if Red Bull will be the same as today. Right now I don’t see anyone at the same level as Verstappen.” The former 11-time F1 Grand Prix winner has left no stone unturned in praising the reigning World Champion.

Max Verstappen can amass five consecutive F1 titles until 2026
While Felipe Massa has claimed that no one is at the level of Max Verstappen under the current regulations and that he can win all the titles, one other thing that he can also do is win five-consecutive World Championships. He has been winning titles regularly since 2021, and considering how well the new regulations have suited Red Bul; he has a real chance of winning five titles until 2026.
The ongoing campaign’s Drivers Championship has become just a formality of Verstappen. If he and Red Bull can do everything right for the next two years, then there would be every chance of seeing the prolific Dutchman win everything. Moreover, he has got the caliber in him to do so.
He is considered one of the best drivers to have ever stepped foot in the world of F1, and the way his career is panning out, he could become a real threat as far as Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher’s record of winning 7 F1 titles is concerned. Verstappen is simply the best driver among the young crop of racers.
