At the newly reopened Hangar-7 in Salzburg, Austria, 4-time F1 champion Max Verstappen casually dropped a bombshell that’s got NASCAR

Max Verstappen excluded himself from his list of the top five drivers in F1 history, also overlooking four-time world champions Sebastian Vettel and Alain Prost. The reigning world champion is quickly etching his name into the annals of F1 as one of its most triumphant drivers.

Red Bull have dropped a major hint as to who will step in if Max Verstappen is handed a one-race ban from Formula 1. The four-time world champion is on the verge of suspension after deliberately crashing into George Russell during the final laps of last Sunday’s Spanish Grand Prix.
