Max Verstappen, the reigning world champion, has achieved an impressive feat by winning three consecutive world championships in the 2021 F1 season. He has dominated the field of motor racing and has established himself as a force to be reckoned with. Despite facing tough competition, Verstappen has received high praise from Red Bull’s technical director. Comparing him to sporting legends like Michael Jordan and Roger Federer, Verstappen’s talent and success at the age of 26 is truly remarkable. In the previous year, he emerged victorious in an astounding 19 out of 22 Grand Prix races.
Red Bull is determined to enhance the performance of the RB20 car to ensure that Verstappen can continue to excel. However, his teammate, Perez, has not been able to match Verstappen’s level of performance in the first part of the ongoing campaign. Currently, Perez holds the seventh position in the Drivers standings. With 10 races remaining in the 2024 F1 season, McLaren and Mercedes are closely trailing Red Bull in the standings. It is crucial for Perez to step up in the second half of the season to secure the Constructors Championship for the Milton-Keynes-based team.
