Max Verstappen’s Google Maps trick that gives him edge over F1 rivals
Four-time F1 champion Max Verstappen uses Google Maps to gain an advantage over his rivals on track, skipping traditional track walks in favor of visualizing circuits online. Despite not completing track walks, the Dutchman’s unique process has proven successful, with four consecutive drivers’ titles to his name. Heading into the Hungarian Grand Prix, Verstappen remains a top contender despite currently being third in the drivers’ championship. His recent victory at Spa showcased his ability to extract pace from the RB21, making him a formidable force on the track. McLaren’s Oscar Piastri is expected to challenge, but Verstappen’s generational talent and past success in Budapest make him a strong competitor for the upcoming race.
