He didn't tremble. Third on the grid for the sprint race this Saturday, on the Qatar Grand Prix circuit, Max Verstappen missed his start, finding himself sixth at the first corner then fifth at the second. Nothing to panic him about. The Dutchman came back little by little despite the various safety cars (3). The Batavian first defeated the Ferraris (Leclerc then Sainz) before attacking George Russell to take second place in the sprint in Qatar during a race dominated by Oscar Piastri (McLaren). But the deal was already decided. From the eleventh round. Stuck in the gravel trap after an incident with Esteban Ocon and Nico Hulkenberg, Sergio Perez, forced to retire, offered the title to his teammate. The third in a row.
A third world title which rewards an almost perfect season for the Batavian. And which is not yet finished. After 16 races, and before the 17th where he will start from pole on Sunday, Max Verstappen has a total of 13 successes this season including this famous record of ten victories in a row between the Miami GP and that of Italy at Monza. The Dutchman has flown through the season, sometimes with staggering gaps over the competition. Of course, his car, the Red Bull, was the best in the field in 2023 but did you still have to know how to use it? Sergio Perez with the same car, after four solid races to start the year, exploded in flight. The Mexican proved, with the same car, incapable of keeping up with the Dutchman's pace in qualifying and even in the race. New proof on Friday during qualifying where Perez went out in Q2 while the world number 1 quietly went for pole straight away at Losail.
At 26, Max Verstappen therefore joins the very closed clan of triple world champions where he joins Jack Brabham, Jackie Stewart, Niki Lauda, Ayrton Senna and Nelson Piquet. Very beautiful people. However, the Dutchman and Red Bull should not stop there. The duo will still be favorites in 2024 and Jos' son will be keen to conquer a fourth world crown in order to join Sebastian Vettel and Alain Prost. And you will have to be very strong to prevent it.
