Verstappen enjoyed a r💟ecord-breaking 2022 campaign, storming to 15 victories en route to the꧒ title.

At just 25, Verstappen has 32 career victories to his name and two drivers’ t🦹itles.

Coult𝓀ha🔯rd - who drove for Red Bull between 2005 and 2008 - believes Verstappen is "already one of the greats".

“Just as Lewis doesn’t need nine wor🦄ld titles for me to consider him one of the greatest drivers in the sport, Max is already one of the greats. You would also have to be a f*♐**ing idiot to claim that he only achieved this because he was in a good car,” he told

“After all, none of his teammates have been able to measure up to him. Max is aဣ beast on the track, a winning machine who doesn’t give a sh** ab💧out what we have to say or what anyone else has to say. He’s unbelievable.”

Despite Verstappen and Red Bull’s dominant campaign, Coulthard warned that theౠ success could come✱ to a sudden halt.

“The Verstappen era may be over after two titles, not because he’s not a brilliant driver, but he may not have a title-winning car in the coming season🌠s. ⛎Nobody knows that in advance,” he added.

“Lewis could have𝓀 been a nine-time instead of a seven-time F1 champion. At the same time, he has often been in a good car, and someone like [Fernando] Alonso has not.

“Alonso should have had more ಌthan tw𝐆o titles but his choices and the racing gods have put him in the position where he will drive for Aston Martin next year and the chances of him becoming champion are slim.”

Verstappen will look to win a third consecutive driver with Red Bull in F1 2023, matching 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sebastian Vettel’s achievement from 2010 to 2012.

After a strong end to the year, Mercedes will be hoping to hit the ground running with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton.

Ferrari showed impressive pace a🐻t times but struggled to capitalise on it.
