Max Verstappen may struggle in 2026, as Lewis Hamilton does now, it is claimed
Max Verstappen has been speculated to face challenges alongside Lewis Hamilton in adapting to F1’s upcoming era of cars. Hamilton, who has struggled with the current ground-effect cars and lost his top spot in F1 post the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, is facing a tough time. Verstappen, who dominated for four years, might also find it difficult to adjust to the new regulations in 2026. Racing driver Davide Valsecchi suggests that youth’s adaptability might evade both top F1 stars. Despite Hamilton’s age and declining performance, Valsecchi believes Ferrari should retain him due to his unmatched achievements in F1.
