Max Verstappen became a three-time World Champion at the Qatar Grand Prix...
1996 F1 World Champion Damon Hill says the “new breed” Max Verstappen comes from a background where he was moulded as a racer from a young age by his father Jos, a figure which Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton did not have.
And it sure has been successful, with Verstappen having secured his third World Championship in as many seasons over the Qatar Grand Prix weekend, crowning that achievement with a further dominant victory on Grand Prix Sunday.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Hill said: “He’s a new breed of driver, or a relatively new breed driver whereby they started very young and of course in Max’s case, his father was a Formula 1 driver, so he had a Formula 1 driver with all his experience, Jos Verstappen, coaching him and giving him the right direction.
