Max Verstappen has completely dominated the last two Formula 1 seasons and now has three world titles to his name.
Of course, considering he won the 2021 title under extremely controversial circumstances, a lot of fans and observers will always question his first title win, however, there’s no doubt that his performances in 2022 and 2023 have been brilliant.
That’s why, in a recent interview with The Times, the Dutch driver was asked if he wants to surpass Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher’s record-breaking seven-world titles.
“If it happens, it happens,” Verstappen said.

“But you need to be lucky to be in a great car for a longer period of time. You’re very dependent on the material you have.
“When I won my first title, I said, everything that comes next is a bonus because, realistically, in F1, I’ve achieved everything that I wanted to achieve.
“Being on the podium, having a pole position, winning a championship. These kinds of things were my dream to achieve in Formula 1.
“From now on, I’m just, yeah, trying to stay on top,” he concluded.
