Verstappen enjoyed a record-breaking 2022 campaign, storming to 15 victories e🍸n route 🅷to the title.

At jus⛄t 25, Verstappไen has 32 career victories to his name and two drivers’ titles.

Coulthard - who drove for Red Bull between 200♛5 and 2008 - believes Verstappen is "already one of the greats".

“Just as Lewis doesn’t need 🐲nine world 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 a beast on the track, a winning 🍎machine who doesn’t give a sh** about what we have to say or what anyone else has to say. He’s unbelievable.”

Despite Verstappen and Red Bull’s domin𒆙ant campaign, Coulthard warned that 💎the 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 seasons. Nobod𒈔y knows that in advance,” he added.

“Lewis could have been a nine-time instead of a seve♈n-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 than two 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 showeꦓd impressive pace at times but strugg💧led to capitalise on it.
