F1: Verstappen’s unexpected announcement on his records

Max Verstappen may be a three-time world champion and already the holder of several records, but he is not in the race for records. The goal for Max Verstappen is only to participate in Grands Prix and win as much as possible. But the Dutchman is lucid because he knows that the more he wins, the more likely he will be to break records.

The 2023 season of Max Verstappen was more than successful. The Dutch driver has broken numerous records, such as that of the most races won in a single season (19). And so many others. But he admitted, he is not looking to break records.

“I don’t care about records”

Max Verstappen spoke about his records and in comments reported by nextgen-auto.com : « Of course I know where most of the drivers are and what their records are, but I don’t worry too much about the records. Records are also linked to luck and having a good car. If I have a good car for seven or eight years, I know that logically I will break a certain number of records. But at the end of the day I don’t care about records. »

“I didn’t enter Formula 1 to break records”

« I don’t care if I break a lot of records or just a few. I didn’t enter Formula 1 to break records, I entered Formula 1 to drive and to winconfesses Verstappen. Breaking records usually happens if you do the latter enough. Senna’s record for number of victories broken? Yes, but this record… today, there are more races per year than back then. And like I said, you depend on the type of car you have. I consciously put these things into perspective. For me, other things are more important. For example, always beating my teammate. It is the most important. And it’s going well, yes. »
