Max Verstappen denies long-standing theory surrounding Red Bull’s F1 cars.
Max Verstappen clarified that Red Bull’s F1 cars are not specifically built to suit his driving style, despite his dominance over teammates since 2019 and his impressive track record with 60 victories and four world championships. He emphasized that he adapts to what he has, rather than having cars tailored to his preferences, as it is crucial to drive the fastest way around the track. Red Bull’s technical director also affirmed that the team did not develop cars specifically for Verstappen, aiming to create a quick car overall. Previous comments from Verstappen’s former teammate, Alex Albon, highlighted the unique driving style of Verstappen, describing it as extremely sharp and direct, akin to a highly sensitive computer cursor. Verstappen, known for his perfectionism, has delivered exceptional performances in 2025, securing pole positions and victories, even when not in world championship contention.
