Where did Formula One's new phenom Max Verstappen come from?

A dream come loyal for immature Red Bull driver Verstappen streaks by upon his way to the first victory of his career. After the couple podiums in which stop/start first season, his careera few extraordinary performances aside (notably hauling the unimpressive Simtek as high as sixth in the 1995 Argentinian Grand Prix before retiring)reads similar to which of the journeyman. He should have achieved more, meaning Jos doesnt only know how formidable it is to translate ability into results, he has lived it.I had the bad luck which we was next to Michael Schumacher when we started in F1; we should have started in the lower team, says Jos. we came into F1 after two years in which we did about 50 races. Max will have done around 45, though he has done the lot some-more in the go-kart. He is better prepared, as good as the world has changed.In all kinds of sports, people have been younger. In F1, the cars have been completely different to the ones in my time, as good as the tracks have been different. When we done the inapplicable designation during the chicane, we was in the gravel trap; now when we brake as good late, there is pavement we can use as good as drive behind upon the circuit.I done as good most mistakes as good as we was compared to the best driver in the total world. But with Max, we have the longer deal, not only the one-year contract. So Max will get the time, as good as Red Bull will prepare Max the lot better. He can handle it. After climbing out of his car, Verstappen celebrates being the youngest driver to ever win the Formula 1 race. The elder Verstappen has been nurturing his sons bent for the long time, even forsaking his own racing career to focus upon it. Max started guidance in the kart during the age of only 4. Initially, it was only the fun way for the father as good as son to pass the time, though it soon became transparent to Jos which his son had the little serious talent.Given which Max doesnt only have racing DNA upon the paternal sidehis mom is Sophie Kumpen, who had the very successful karting careerit is perhaps no surprise which he had raw ability in abundance.Speaking with Jos during length about his sons development, though, it becomes transparent which nurture has played some-more of the part than nature.Its natural talent, as good as its education, he says. The way he overtakes is natural talent, though there have been things we have to do to understand which talent. You have to teach them, investigate overtaking, watch F1. He is regularly watching what to do as good as how to overtake. After the incident between Lewis Hamilton as good as Nico Rosberg in Barcelona, Verstappen wasted no time taking advantage of the opportunity. Ill give we an example. He was winning the lot when he was young. At the time, we had standing starts, as good as people would put the bit of oil upon the clutch to have the better start. we didnt do that. we liked him to come out of the first corner in fourth because we wanted him to race. He regularly overtook easily, as good as although people were saying his engine was stronger, we consider it was due to keeping speed up in the corner.At times we told him, Youre not authorised to overtake upon the straight as good as which we cant overtake there or there. we wanted him to overtake in different places to make it hard for him.Gut reaction says this seems apocryphal, some-more about mythmaking than the truth. But look during Maxs career to date, as good as it rings true. In winning the CIK-FIA World KZ Championship kart title last year, Max had to battle his way up from third, whilst in F3 this season he has done the habit of overtaking in astonishing places.The quality of his education has shone through in every facet of his F3 debate opposite vastly some-more gifted opposition, to the point which most of his rivals regard him as the most intelligent in the field. The 19-year-old receives direction before to starting out as good as winning the Spanish Grand Prix. When Red Bull Junior Team boss Helmut Marko originally lifted the idea of the jump straight into F1, Jos claims to have been skeptical. But the some-more he suspicion about it, the some-more sense it made. Max is the driver who has been pushed as good as challenged consistently during his career; only winning was never enough. And whilst Jos during times has been the hard taskmaster, the fact Max has come through it so good to date suggests he is done of the kind of steel which wont buckle under F1s pressure.Working with him for so long, we have seen him do implausible things, says Jos. His ability is very high, as good as we really consider he can do it, though its formidable to say as the father because every father admires their son. But we have something really special, as good as we helped him, helped to create him, to push him as good as to be in the right equipment.The subject is perhaps not whether the 17-year-old can competition in F1. The subject is whether this 17-year-old can. Verstappen is certainly an exceptional prospect as good as possibly one of those rare, once-in-a-generation talents. By Edd Straw
