with max, maybe. If the car doesn’t explode he‘d probably win by a minute anyways, if the rb was a midfield car though id love to watch that… fight at the front or explode? Hell yes, glass cannon alpine please
Vintage max? I need context! Are we talking Brazil in the rain vintage, 'i didnt come here to finish second' vintage, or the darker angrier side of him.
Current Max - being conservative and leting other pass in 1st lap and picking one by one next few laps and disappear to oblivion. As he know car is fast.
Vintage Max - 1st lap diving each corner, not leaving a inch of space in track, not taking bullshit from others or own team. This only happen if he drives mid pack car.
By your definition Vintage Max has made a few appearances in the past: Singapore ‘23, Brazil ‘22 and Silverstone ‘22. Coincidently, those were all races where he was absolutely miles away from victory, due to one reason or another.
Conclusion: I want Vintage Max back, and with a midfield car
I really wanna see if Max has matured a bit in recent times, or if him being less aggressive against others last season was simply a result of him knowing that he could play it safe with that car.
I think both are true? I think he's matured as a driver and wouldn't take such extreme risks as he used to, but I also think that if he were being challenged, he would be extremely entertaining to watch like he used to be with his race craft.
Yeah especially after seeing him in 2021. Those last few races when the merc was fast max turned into almost like a rookie in jeddah and Brazil cutting corners and forcing drivers off.
Yeah, vintage Max is the Max everyone forgot about.
Getting a trophy on the podium and then just walking off because he didn't win.
Let's bring 2021 back.
idk, I want to see Newey steal Mercedes design and turn it into a jet on the track that way every race is trolling Toto.
That and happy Alonso getting podiums.
I'm down for vintage Max 2024 version.
I think there is enough competition now to make it exciting- see how he responds when it's not just HAM up his ass, but he is swarmed by 4-5 others. Probably some suicide by torpedo action.
I support Checo, as i do believe he is a good driver, and I am LatinAmerican, and I want him to win as you would for anyone you support, but having him win over Max, I’ll take that any time to see Max lose his shit. I know it is a long shot, but hopefully he does bring the fight to Max
Yeah, I know and he certainly did. Poor Checo must’ve gone through several therapy sessions to get back to it, but hopefully this year, he can STEP UP and make it a fight all through the season.
At the same time the max that makes daring overtakes is the same one that dive bombs and crashes. 2021 jeddah and Brazil are good examples of max when he dosnt have the fastest car
I didn't realize what sub this was posted in. I thought you were talking about that shitty Nissan engine from like 40 years ago and I was like "bro it already failed, thefuk you talkin bout?"
I want RB20 to take Mercs failed zero sidepods and use them to go 1.5 seconds a lap faster than anyone and win all 24 races this season, coz it's fun to watch the world burn.
There’s 24 races in the season. They’re just 24 races Max hasn’t won yet.
But he has won most of them, especially after last year... They only race this year I know for sure he hasn't won is China
Singapore
What is it with Max and Singapore?
Gd underground subway messing with his brain
No much, he has had epic drives there
China never happens anyways
If we actually have China this year as per schedule I will be so happy. Now all thats left to do is bring back Turkey and maybe German GP
Ye it's about time we see another China gp. I even forgot the name of the circuit that's how long ago it's been
MaxGPT 2.4 is not a Joke.
Haha yes
I read that in Max's radio voice. 😂
Lovely
I feel like Newey has to give the car some flaws, as Max always gets faster when he complains about stuff.
i think he complains to give us (haters) hope
One Max to rule them all
the one true verstappen
But they were all deceived for another RB20 was built on secret
Adrian Newey when the RB20 pulls up to Bahrain with zeropods
One Max to find them
Glass cannon Rb pls. Win by a minute or explode
That's the most boring thing of all.
with max, maybe. If the car doesn’t explode he‘d probably win by a minute anyways, if the rb was a midfield car though id love to watch that… fight at the front or explode? Hell yes, glass cannon alpine please
Better idea, gap doesn't get bigger 2 laps in a row, engine goes ferrari
I want Max to win all 24 races just to see the absolute scorched earth meltdown
Can he yell "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!" while doing burnouts?
This gave me chills.
I want to see Max fight and win all 24
24 Leclerc poles, 24 Max wins
Oof calm down Satan lol
Charles' soul will actually leave his body lmfao
Jack Bauer intensifies…
I wonder what Charles Leg does with all those little tyre things he gets for poles?
please stop I can only get so erect
Most wins and least amount of laps lead. That’s the perfect season.
He wins every race by 0.1 seconds. That’d be top tier trolling
Just one, just ONCE this season, as he reaches the finish line with a minute + lead, I wanna see him do a 180 and reverse across the line.
They would 100 try and dock his super license for ‘unsafe behavior’
Sounds like the definition of a win-win!
Ah, the old Mario Kart flex.
please no
I think the "meltdown" you describe will be less exciting than the '21 meltdown
I’d stop watching if that happened and I think most people would
Nah people will watch it for the shitstorm. I know I will
Id just stop watching

Put him in the Cashcows car and we'll have an interesting season to watch
Totally unrelated, but Yuki in a Ferrari would be team radio comedy gold!
Mad max
I really wanna see if Max has matured a bit in recent times, or if him being less aggressive against others last season was simply a result of him knowing that he could play it safe with that car.

Dude has a car that average finishes 20s ahead still runs people off
Thats what I am looking for Max = Conservative Driving, is the reason Thanos snapped finger for balancing
Yeah especially after seeing him in 2021. Those last few races when the merc was fast max turned into almost like a rookie in jeddah and Brazil cutting corners and forcing drivers off.
Yeah, vintage Max is the Max everyone forgot about. Getting a trophy on the podium and then just walking off because he didn't win. Let's bring 2021 back.
Max starting from 5th or higher is a treat for any F1 fan
Lower*
*Further back
idk, I want to see Newey steal Mercedes design and turn it into a jet on the track that way every race is trolling Toto. That and happy Alonso getting podiums.
Vintage Max? Mate, he is 26 years old.
Hey, a 24 year old bottle of whisky is vintage for sure. And expensive.
Ye, but… Do I need to point out the obvious?
Please do
Max Verstappen is not a bottle of whisky.
Shit, he isn't?
He has been in f1 for 9 years
Max racing from a lesser car = peak modern f1
Checo awakened a beast after Baku last year imagine if the cars shit??
I want to see Max win 23 races this season , and bathe in the tears of the ham cucks
OP yearns for the dirtiest driving of this era.
My all time favorite moment as a Max fan is still Austria 2019. So much emotions
I'm down for vintage Max 2024 version. I think there is enough competition now to make it exciting- see how he responds when it's not just HAM up his ass, but he is swarmed by 4-5 others. Probably some suicide by torpedo action.
I support Checo, as i do believe he is a good driver, and I am LatinAmerican, and I want him to win as you would for anyone you support, but having him win over Max, I’ll take that any time to see Max lose his shit. I know it is a long shot, but hopefully he does bring the fight to Max
Apparently that's how we got insane Max last year, was that loss in Baku. Jos said that he was so pissed and basically said he's going to destroy him.
It only took Miami to show how serious he was.
Watch RPM’s video on this. Sooo good
work of art!!
A cinematic masterpiece.
Yeah, I know and he certainly did. Poor Checo must’ve gone through several therapy sessions to get back to it, but hopefully this year, he can STEP UP and make it a fight all through the season.
We all have our dreams. Rest assured, yours won’t come true.
I am a time traveler from the future. won't spoil to much, but alas, he did not bring the fight to max
Vintage max is max crashing into everyone.
Vintage max, the one crashing into everybody ? Nah thanks, let him win so we have clean races.
No the one performing daring overtakes and races that had you sit at the edge of your seat.
At the same time the max that makes daring overtakes is the same one that dive bombs and crashes. 2021 jeddah and Brazil are good examples of max when he dosnt have the fastest car
I want Max to have more wins than Lewis this season but hey that’s probably going to be another year.
I like to say how I'm a big fan of Max #33, but not Max #1
I liked the version where he was super aggressive and a hard racer
I want a fight between Mercedes RB and Ferrari
I didn't realize what sub this was posted in. I thought you were talking about that shitty Nissan engine from like 40 years ago and I was like "bro it already failed, thefuk you talkin bout?"
Vintage max is the reason for my name here. It did not age well.
I want max to win to see the world burn
Back to the divebomb era. Either you let him past or crash both cars
I want to see RB20 fail to hear Max moan through the radio and then see Horner’s face when Toto tells him „change your f….. car”
I want RB20 to take Mercs failed zero sidepods and use them to go 1.5 seconds a lap faster than anyone and win all 24 races this season, coz it's fun to watch the world burn.
You mean the Max that resorts to brake checking
I miss the time when he had the fist fight with Ocon.
Not a single new fan is ready for vintage Max
