Things Older than Max Verstappen

Verstappen

Max Verstappen missed out on a real podium opportunity after colliding with Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel during the Chinese Grand Prix. Verstappen naturally became the talk of the weekend with people questioning his lack of experience, his driving style etc. Vettel was Verstappen’s latest victim, after previously colliding with reigning world champion Lewis Hamilton in Bahrain. It was natural of RedBull to shield their driver but giving the “Max is still young, he’s still learning” excuse brought a fair amount of criticism on their part.

On a lighter note here are a few things older than Max Verstappen:
1.     Google
2.     Ebay
3.     Harry Potter 
4.     Pokemeon
5.     Spice Girls 

Verstappen Crash

However, rivals expect Max to only come back stronger. Criticism is part of the sport and this was Verstappen’s wake up call to pull himself together and get his foot down. Esteban Ocon who raced against Verstappen in the F3 series said - 
“Max is Max. He's still the same as he was back then. We used to bang wheels quite a few times down the same straight.But that is how he has always been driving. He has never changed. I know how he is but I don't think it's a bad thing. That's how his driving style is”. Ocon told Sky F1.

F1 Friendships/Bromances

In the title i used the word 'Bromance', if you don't know what bromance means well to put it simply it friendship between men . It's not hard to tell that it's the combination of two words 'brother' and 'romance'.  There are bromances in everywhere and F1 is not an exception.They maybe rivals while on track but off track it's a little different.  1.Fernando Alonso/Mark Webber  Mark webber might have retired form Formula one but that doesn't mean that his friendship with fellow driver Mark webber would halt. They share a common love for cycling and are often seen together in the paddock ,F1 or Le Mans.    P.S their "shipped name is webbando"             2.Sebastian Vettel/Kimi Raikkonen   Now teammates these two have been friends ever since Vettel's entry into F1 in 2007.

What Happened to Scuderia Ferrari in 2020

It’s no secret that the start of Ferrari’s 2020 F1 season has been disastrous. The team is seriously lacking pace and can barely match Racing Point—let alone Mercedes or Red Bull. Ferrari has traditionally been the main challenger or the No. 2 team during the Mercedes-dominated hybrid era. However, the lingering question is: why hasn’t Ferrari been able to consistently challenge the likes of Mercedes and Red Bull in recent years? Despite having multiple world champions like Fernando Alonso, Kimi Räikkönen, and Sebastian Vettel in their lineup, the team has failed to return to its former glory. Ferrari’s main issues seem to stem from its tendency to favor one driver over the other and its poor internal communication. They continue to make mistakes that shouldn't happen at this level—rookie-level errors. A prime example is Canada 2019, where Ferrari allegedly failed to inform Charles Leclerc about his teammate's five-second penalty. And let’s not even start on their questionabl...
