Some see Max as a future world champion. Others have
described him as an error-prone rookie. Since bursting
onto the F1 scene with that famous win in Catalonia,
prodigy Max Verstappen has certainly divided opinion.
WHO IS THIS KID?
Max Verstappen rose to fame on 15th May when he
finished first in the Spanish Grand Prix. It was also his
debut for Red Bull, and the victory sent shockwaves
through sport. Yet, in his very next race - the Monaco GP
Street Circuit - 18-year-old Max crashed and finished
last. Some pundits have put this down to amateurism.
FULL NAME: Max Emilian Verstappen
DOB: 30.09.1997
POB: Hasselt (Belgium)
F1 DRIVER SINCE: 2014
CAREER POINTS: 103
DID YOU KNOW: Max's father is former
F1 star Jos Verstappen, who won two
Grand Prix bronzes in 1994. His mother
Sophie was renowned for Karting, and
uncle Anthony is a NASCAR driver!
WHAT D'YA SAY?
Does Max have the potential to win another
Grand Prix, or will he flop before the season's
over? Let us know your thoughts @YProMag
