Dutch racing driver Tim Coronel has laughed off 2021 NASCAR champion Kyle Larson’s belief that he is “better” than Max Verstappen.
After Kyle Larson claimed he is “better” than Max Verstappen, Dutch racing driver Tim Coronel quickly stepped in to challenge the NASCAR champion’s assertion. Coronel, speaking on FloRacing, disagreed with Larson’s statement, defending the expertise of the three-time F1 drivers’ champion. The 52-year-old driver suggested that Larson might not be fully aware of the global racing landscape beyond his American bubble. Coronel even proposed a head-to-head match between Larson and Verstappen, confidently asserting that the Dutchman would emerge victorious. He directly addressed Larson, expressing doubt in his understanding of what it truly means to drive a car. In Coronel’s view, if the two were to compete, it would likely result in a clear win for Verstappen, with Larson left rueful after just two practice sessions.
