Unstoppable Max Verstappen All Set to Equal Legendary World Champion Niki Lauda & Others at Monaco GP

Despite his 2 painful DNFs this season which made him lose out on about 36 points, Max Verstappen now leads the Drivers championship. And after the latest race, Verstappen is up in 11th place on the all-time race winners table. Now, Max can sit level with an Austrian racing legend as early as next week.

The Dutchman is on an incredible run of form this season. To put things in perspective, every time Verstappen has crossed the finish line, he’s done it as the winner, even at the sprint race at Imola. He might not be the best yet, however, he’s quickly chasing down records created by the very best. With a win in Barcelona, the Dutch world champion beat Nelson Piquet in overall F1 wins.

Max overtook Piquet’s 23-win record with his 24th win at the Spanish Grand Prix. And at just 24 years of age, Verstappen is just getting started. His 24th win also brought Max level to another legend, Juan Manuel Fangio.

The late Austrian racing driver has been a huge inspiration to a lot of drivers. And it will be an incredible achievement for Verstappen to sit level with the 3-time world champion.

The 25th win will also put Max in the top ten of all-time race winners. And that’s exactly what Red Bull will want from their driver who has signed a long-term contract with them. But only time will tell us where Max will finish on the table of all-time race winners.
