Verstappen’s fiery competitiveness and aggressioꦺn on the track, coup🌼led with his assault on a third consecutive F1 championship, has drawn comparisons with the legendary Schumacher.

But Todt, the💃 ex-Ferrari team principal who guided the most iconic years of the German’ꦯs career, sees only similarity.

He told about Verღstappen: "Fast, he makes few mistakes. 

“He's a fighter like Michael. But on a human level I know Max too little to judge him. “Michael might have seemed a bit presumptuous💞 and obnoxious when he ran, but it was an attitude that served to hide his shyness. 

“He was humble, he always questioned himself. He never blamed thꦆe team, not even when the brakes broke at Silverstone through our fault. 

“I don't make comparisons, but he and Max have one thing in common…
"They drive for the best team and that helps."

Ferrari, meanwhile, have been left behind in Re📖d Bull’s and Mercedes’ 😼shadows over the past few years.

Th♔e Scuderia have not crowned an F1 drivers’ champion since K𓆉imi Raikkonen in 2007.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Charles Leclerc, last year’s runner-up in the F1 standings, already appears to have little hope of the title this year after failing to finish two o꧟f the first three grands prix.

“In F1 there are good ones, and then a very sm🐎all group of very good people of which Leclerc is part,” Todt said.

He added about Ferrari’s barren years🌜 without a champion: "Without winning a title, but they won races. 

“Ferrari has remained, since I left, one of the best teams🔯 in F1. 

“Something is missing, it is the protagonist but not yet for the championship. Let's giv▨e them time to show that they are able to take the last step."

Mattia Binotto was replaced by Fred Vasseur as team principal this season, while there have been several other changes among key personnel at Maranello in the e𒊎arly stages of 2023 too.

Todt insisted that Ferrari must employ the best staff: "Not just technicians. It is imperative toඣ have the best in every area. 

“A company is judged by the front door. Frꦿom the way an operator answers the phone. You have to take the best ones and then coordinate them by creating a fertile environment."
