good news; Verstappen is celebrates he’s birthday Schumacher and Hamilton.
max verstappen has today, April 26, as his birthday. He made his Formula 1 debut when he was just 17 years old, and now, ten years later, the Dutchman is ‘lonely at the top’ in the highest division of motorsport. Verstappen’s performance is unmatched, and it appears like a third world championship is imminent. Therefore, he is still on track to become the person with the most world titles in the future.
Verstappen has won two world championships so far, but a third is on the horizon. The Dutchman can therefore win a third consecutive championship at the Qatar Grand Prix weekend. However, he is still in a strong position to win more titles in the upcoming years, so it does not appear that this is the end.
Hamilton and Schumacher were older.
The Dutchman is still younger than some of the biggest names in the sport to complete the “hat-trick,” at the age of 26, if we compare Verstappen with other drivers who won many Formula 1 world titles. At 26 years old, Michael Schumacher was on the verge of winning two world titles, almost exactly 27 years old. The German then had to wait a long, sharing the record seven world titles with Lewis Hamilton. He didn’t win his third World Championship until he was 32 years old. Verstappen is 26 years old and already doing this.
Comparing Verstappen to previous drivers who have won numerous Formula 1 world titles, the Dutchman is still younger than some of the biggest names in the sport to complete the “hat-trick,” at the age of 26. Michael Schumacher was almost exactly 27 years old when he was on the verge of winning two world titles at the age of 26. After that, the German had to wait a long time, as he and Lewis Hamilton shared the record seven world titles. It took him until he was thirty-two years old to win his third World Championship. Verstappen is 26 years old and has experience in this already.
At the age of 26, Sebastian Vettel has held four of his four world championships. Verstappen is not the youngest driver in history to win three world titles; the German was a very successful racer at a young age with Red Bull Racing. He is still very much on track to surpass the records held by Schumacher and Hamilton, though.
