early life

Max Verstappen is the son of former Formula 1 driver Jos Verstappen, who competed in the premier class between 1994 and 2003. His mother and uncle used to be successful in various racing series. It is therefore not surprising that Max Verstappen came into contact with racing at an early age. Max Verstappen started karting at the age of eleven and quickly became the best driver in his age group. His talent was more than obvious and so it happened that he first competed in international kart races and then switched to Formula 3.

Famous quotes

“I don’t watch videos. I remember certain racing situations, look at the positive and the negative. From this I draw my conclusions to do better next year.”

“In my private life I have other friends. Of course I sometimes meet other drivers. But we are all very busy. When I’m home, I want to see my family and friends. Some people get along better. We are opponents on the track. But I have respect for everyone on and off the track. I can have a good laugh with some drivers.”

“The next generation is younger because they are better prepared. The sport has become more professional. That pays off. I don’t necessarily think it has anything to do with simulator driving. It’s about how you’re raised. The way we train, the way other people support us.”

“Everyone has to think of themselves as the fastest. If you don’t think like that, you don’t belong in Formula 1. If you ask the others who is the fastest, they will answer the same way I did. At least 90 percent. Otherwise you’d better stay at home and do something else.”
