F1 Champ Max Verstappen Replies to Fans on the Internet | Actually Me | GQ Sports

what is it with uf1 drivers always speed is the limit always looking for danger can you all just lay on the beach and do nothing but that's boring doing nothing what's up GQ I'm Max Steppin and today I'm going undercover on the internet it's actually me Cora never heard of it what is Max stepping in child secret life's relationship like yeah it's very good now I mean back in the day in gokarting our relationship wasn't that great I mean we both made it to Formula One we are both driving for two amazing teams and we are fighting for a championship and that's all what we dreamed of as little kids as well you know and now we grew up a lot and we really respect each other a lot next what makes Max 7 so good when racing on a wet track practice growing up in Belgium and Holland it rains a lot so we never like turned around when it suddenly started raining we would put the rain Ties on and we would go out and practice and that just helps a lot you know you get a lot more understanding of what you have to do when it rains post it Wikipedia [Music] in this first race for stopping around in point scoring positions until he was forced to retire due to an engine failure yeah my first few years in Formula One were related to a lot of engine failures Mitchell wrote for step and drives melee on intuition and that comes from years of training and preparation he has a database in his head which he can use immediately I didn't know intuition but also experience it helps a lot from when I started a phone run I only raised one year in a junior category before I moved up to Formula One so of course I'm gonna learn a lot in Formula One and of course the way I grew up with my dad trying to prepare me and work towards the goal of getting to formula one for sure you know it helps Tick Tock my favorite [Music] so out of all the F1 drives in history who would you most want to race against I get this question quite a lot I would just like to race against my dad back in the day in his prime [Music] how does Max feel about Daniel's exit for McLaren I love them his teammates crazy how much um has changed I'm really good friends with Daniel we had a lot of fun together as teammates and sometimes things just don't work out it's better to leave instead of putting yourself in that difficult situation and I just hope for him that he finds a seat so he can continue to show how good he is Twitter I wonder if Stephen has any big gifts planned for his family since he's dominating the season I saw when he won his first race he had to buy his sister a handbag it was actually when I scored my first points it's not like if I win something then I need to buy something but whenever they need something really important I will always be there for my family someone said give me riking and race against Boat Max stabbing and his daughter you're stabbing and Alonso too I think can someone confirm yeah it's true Kimmy raised for a very long time replied read it after a full start with two retirements in the first three race weekends the crescendo has gone up for Max Stampin that is very correct sir couldn't have had really a worse start than what we had to the year but we managed to turn it around the cars got a lot lighter as well we were heavily overweight once the weight is coming down close to the minimum weight it becomes a lot more agile and that's of course what you want from a race car that's that low drag question mark very good question well I'm probably the wrong person to answer that you have to talk to the engineers next YouTube [Music] this seems like a good time to mention that Max was allowed to drive and have one car before he was allowed to drive a road car yeah I mean I was 17 when I started which is now not allowed anymore by the rules you need to be 18. the first year was quite funny I was not allowed to drive on a normal road but of course allowed to race in F1 my heart goes nuts during any moment in eye racing and I can only imagine how fast Max was going during the last lap referring to Abu Dhabi last year yeah of course my heart rate was very high at the time you know it's been a long season and everything comes down to that final lap for the championship but my heart rate also goes up when I'm racing online you know I also want to do the best I can and I also want to try and be perfect Max Hall my name is Max and I wish I could be enough on driver I'm only 10 and I want to be like my step I started a little bit younger than that but it's never too late keep practicing Instagram what is it with uf1 drivers always speed is the limit always looking for danger can you all just lay on the beach and do nothing but that's boring doing nothing and what's dangerous I mean you can also slip in the shower and break a neck or cycle around New York Define dangerous at the end post it I don't know what this means but it seems special congrats it was very special I mean it was definitely a very proud moment for me to be recognized by my country like that definitely very proud next I butcher can we shout out Hannah schmidz for being the best in the business May the Schmitz be with you Max she's a [ __ ] gem well that's why she is also employed by Red Bull okay that's it I'm signing off the internet
