Verstappenโs 2022-2023 seasons are unbelievable. Over the 2 seasons combined he won 15/22 (68%) and 19/22 (86.4)%), which together is good enough for 77.3% across 44 races
Ascariโs record of 75% win rate (8 races) stood from 1952 until the end of 2023
The craziest part? If you chose to include sprints, he would have 15+2/25, and 19+4/28, which combined is 75.5%!
Even with sprints across 2 seasons, 44 races and 9 sprints, he managed to top Ascariโs 1952 record.
Red Bull quite literally signed max, stuck him in a TR for 1 season and brought him to the main team at 18 โ without having the top car mind you
Unwarranted criticism from Wolff here
Toto Wolff criticises Red Bull and Ferrari if Kimi was their driver
"If he had been at Ferrari or Red Bull, they never would have put him directly in the best car"
"They would have sent him to a small team, like they did with Bearman"

๐ณ Max Verstappen's 2026 season has been insane considering where Red Bull started
๐ฅ The only driver with more wins than Max is Kimi Antonelli

This is as good a race start as you can find in F1 โ genuinely though no one does Mexico like Max does
Take it in, Verstappen went from p5-p2 on mediums, in the first lap โ made zero mistakes, nailed the red flag restart, defended brilliantly during it, and then won the race in a car that was clearly not the fastest.
Sensational performance

Max Verstappen is the most reliable driver of all-time when it comes to turning "50-50 races" into wins.
You can't question that.
By the way, this is a huge win for Max โ nailed the initial start, mega job on lap 1, nailed the red flag restart, and safety car restart, all with a ridiculous fp2 penalty
Big congratulations to Kimi for his first world title, youngest to do it โ and a great season when everyone penciled him to lose to Russell โ well done
Verstappen fans. Burn this race into your mind the next time people pipe up about whatever overreaction they can for max making a move on track
