“The Best Ever”: F1 Twitter Bows Down to the Undisputed King as Max Verstappen Bags Yet Another Accolade
Follow Us
In the 2022 Formula 1 championship season, Max Verstappen got used to the top berth. Everything the Dutchman did in the season, he was the best at it. So staying on top became a consistent habit for Verstappen. However, this is not a one-off scenario. Verstappen has been performing consistently for the past few years and the team bosses seem to agree.
All team bosses are asked to submit a list of their top 10 drivers of the season in an annual poll conducted by Formula 1. The bosses submit their list with the understanding that their list will remain a secret. They give the drivers points based on the current F1 points system. After the compilation of the list, one driver completely smashed it in the scores. No extra points for guessing who that driver is. It is Max Verstappen.

The Dutchman not only dominated the 2022 season, but he was also the team boss’s favorite. The Dutchman scored a whopping 207 points. Verstappen beat Charles Leclerc by a big margin in this poll; with a 63 points lead. Safe to say, the year 2022 was of Verstappen and the team bosses seem to agree as well.
The team bosses clearly have a favorite driver in the current season. Or we can credit it to the Red Bull man’s unparalleled consistency so far.
