Max Verstappen is on a roll! The Dutch prodigy has now won 4 races in a row, setting his own personal record. All 4 of Verstappen’s race wins have been impressive, to say the least. From fending off attacks from his rivals to demolishing the entire circuit, ‘Mad Max’ is at his ruthless best. It’s no surprise that he earned the plaudits of other drivers and, of course, his own team.

Red Bull and Max Verstappen are both itching closer toward the championships. In fact, Max enjoys a hefty 109 points lead over Sergio Perez and Charles Leclerc. On the other hand, Red Bull sits on a comfortable 135 points lead against Ferrari.

Max earned the praise of Helmut Marko after the Dutch Grand Prix. Marko couldn’t believe Max’s sublime performance at his home turf and believed the Dutchman is on his own planet. The Red Bull CEO said,

“He was completely focused on the race. This boy, well boy, he’s almost 25 years old so actually a young man, it’s unbelievable. He jumps in the car and sits on his own planet. Max is not distracted at all. He sleeps in until someone wakes him up at 10am.” [translated using google translate]

He also took a sly dig at Mercedes, stating, “I was surprised that Mercedes did not choose to bring Hamilton in for a pit stop. We have already received a lot of presents this year. We also make grateful use of these.”

“For Max this is a wonderful honor. You could see he was touched and honored. He is a great ambassador for the country and the fact that he has already achieved this at this age is extraordinary”

He added, “It feels like a privilege. We’re very proud of him at Red Bull Racing.”
