Max Verstappen: The Unstoppable Force in Formula One - Breaking Records and Dominating the Season

Max Verstappen's victory at the São Paulo Grand Prix has solidified his position as the most dominant driver in Formula One history for a single season. With 17 wins out of 20 races, Verstappen's win percentage currently stands at an impressive 85%. Even if he doesn't win the remaining two races, he will still finish above the previous record of 75% set by Alberto Ascari in 1952. When asked about the significance of these statistics, Verstappen remained modest. He attributed his success to a combination of feeling comfortable in his car, a competitive team, and minimal mistakes. For him, it's all about enjoying the moment and making the most of every opportunity. Verstappen's achievements go beyond just his win record. He has also set a new record for the number of podium finishes in a season with 19. Additionally, he has led a remarkable 922 laps, the highest ever in a season. With a 266-point lead over his teammate Sergio Pérez, Verstappen's dominance is unparalleled, surpassing previous records set by Sebastian Vettel. In breaking Mercedes' record for most wins in a season and most laps led, Verstappen and Red Bull have made history. With the season coming to a close, it's clear that Verstappen's performance has elevated this year's Formula One to new heights, making it the best season ever.
