Max Verstappen by Mark Hughes

A definitive and intriguing biography of Max Verstappen, Formula 1’s superstar, Lewis Hamilton’s great rival and the winner of the 2021 and 2022 World Drivers’ Championships. No Hollywood scriptwriter could possibly have envisioned the breathless, adrenaline-pumping climax to the 2021 Formula 1 season. On the very last lap of the final race of an unbelievably arduous and controversial season, Red Bull’s Max Verstappen nervelessly overtook the seven-time World Champion Lewis Hamilton of Mercedes to clinch the first place that thrust the young prodigy to the narrowest of victories and to his first World Drivers’ title. He followed up by taking the 2022 title as well. Verstappen may only be 25 years of age, but the Dutch motorsport sensation has an incredible record in F1 and has already left an indelible mark on the sport.
