The Austrian had previously described his former team-mate and close friend as the greatest of all time.
Gerhard Berger, a former Formula 1 driver, believes that Max Verstappen is slightly better than Ayrton Senna, whom he previously considered the greatest driver of all time. Berger had a close relationship with Senna during their time as teammates at McLaren in the early 1990s. He attended Senna’s funeral after his tragic death in 1994. Berger now admires Verstappen for his exceptional skills and the ability to push himself to the limit without making mistakes. He also emphasizes the importance of having more winners in Formula 1.
Looking ahead to the new season, Berger sees McLaren as a competitive team that could challenge Red Bull, with Ferrari as the second strongest team. However, he recognizes that Red Bull, with Verstappen and strong management, will be difficult to surpass. Berger concludes by inviting opinions on who the greatest F1 driver of all time is – Senna, Verstappen, or someone else.
