“F1 Is Rubbish”: IndyCar Star Disses Max Verstappen’s Ridiculous Dominance Triggering War Between the Two Heavyweight Motorsport Division

IndyCar vs F1. The decades-old debate cannot and never will be settled. An IndyCar driver recently suggested Max Verstappen’s utter dominance in F1 as he followed the recent race in the States. His Tweet waged a war between the fans of the two Heavyweights of Open Wheel racing. While a conclusion was still not found, the assumptions made by fans are worth checking out. 

Max Verstappen and Red Bull have been the benchmark for the 2023 F1 season and the combination to beat for the rest of the field. While Sergio Perez has given some competition to Max Verstappen, the Dutchman looks unbeatable after his performances at Jeddah and Miami. Verstappen started P15 at Jeddah and finished P2 only 5 seconds behind Perez. And in Miami after starting P9 he won the race comfortably with no competition whatsoever.

Verstappen had a big task ahead of him after starting P9. Regardless, the Dutchman made overtake after overtake, lap after lap and was already in P2 by Lap 15 after overtaking Fernando Alonso. Verstappen then started catching up to Checo on slower rubber. Comfortably leading the race, Verstappen pitted for new rubber, overtook Checo and set the fastest lap to win the race. 

Current IndyCar driver and 3x Supercars champion Scott McLaughlin put a Tweet out about Max Verstappen’s dominance on the race day. As the Dallara driver was watching the Miami GP, he tweeted about how Verstappen is already in P2 just after 15 laps despite starting P9. The Kiwi attached a lol at the end, suggesting he thought of Red Bull’s dominance as a joke after all that F1 has done to promote closer racing.

Fans react to Scott McLaughlin’s tweet about the dominance of Max Verstappen

Fans took to Twitter as they reacted and commented on the Dallara’s driver tweet. Many fans suggested that the RB19 and Max Verstappen combination is ridiculous and that IndyCar is much more interesting. Others suggested that F1 is all about the show with bad racing whereas IndyCar is all about close racing, which is interesting to watch. Let’s see how the fans have reacted:

Many suggested that F1 has become a joke, as it’s all about engineering and not racing anymore. Others suggested that because of the close racing, IndyCar is the best series.

The F1 TV’s Tech Talk show did a comparison between IndyCar and F1 just before the Miami GP. While the fans will never come to a conclusion, the engineering knowledge gained while R&D for F1 goes on is next to none. There’s a reason why it’s the ‘Pinnacle of Motorsports’.
