Max Verstappen, the reigning world champion, has been sparkling his magic at the pinnacle of motor racing for several years. Since 2022, he has proved to be nothing short of brilliant, and amidst his ever-growing stature in the sport, he has taken the time to talk about where F1 will be in 10 years.

F1 has evolved massively in the last few years and has kept on coming up with surprises now and then. To put things into perspective, the Sprint race format was nowhere to be seen during the past decades and has only come into the limelight in the last few years.

Verstappen has won all the driver’s championships since 2021 and is the firm favorite to win again during the 2024 campaign. He has proved too mighty under the current set of regulations and thus, several pundits believe that he is the man who could break Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher‘s long-standing F1 record.

Max Verstappen is considered as one of the best drivers to have ever stepped foot into the world of F1. He has all the skills in his ever-evolving arsenal and the way he is going, it would not come as a huge surprise if somewhere down the line he is seen lifting a record-breaking eighth world title.
