Max Verstappen

Max Verstappen's four consecutive World Championships from 2021 to 2024, including a record 19 wins from 22 races in 2023—more victories in a single season than any driver in history—propel him into the GOAT conversation at just 27. His wheel-to-wheel racecraft and conditioning excellence produced a 2023 win rate of 86.4%, outperforming the average of 75% for champions. This Red Bull partnership is the most dominant since Schumacher-Ferrari, surpassing even the peak of Sebastian Vettel (#7) at Red Bull.
