Which Driver is the Reincarnation of Drivers Past?! (Part2)

Next up is someone who has truly grown over the years into an excellent driver. Not just because of his skill, but because of his majority. Max Verstappen has come a long way since he first came into F1. I remember watching him make a lot of mistakes and be to eager to dive bomb someone. Now, he still dive bombs drivers. But, with a little more skill and experience involved to make it a clean/aggressive overtake.

People might not see this as a good fit but hear me out on this one. The driver from heralded past is Aryton Senna. I'm sure your thinking Senna really, no way! I know Max has not won a championship yet. But think about it from a driver standpoint and how Senna acted off track. Senna was amazing at wet weather races, he had a mindset of if there is a gap, I’m going for it, and he sort of destroys team mates much like Max. He was also very good at getting the absolute most out of a car, whatever team he was on. Pushing the car and team to the limit! Max has a lot more to learn on the track, and off the track. But what he has shown is just that little spark we all saw in Senna. The spark that led to many championships and going down in history as one of the greatest drivers.

If anyone could push the boundaries of modern F1, it would be Max. I can see a lot future potential with Max. Not just on the track, but off the track as well. Just like Senna pushed the limits in his day. Will it take some time quite possibly. However, there has been glimpses here and there over the course of the last two seasons. I think once he reaches that moment and gets past the few barriers keeping him lock behind and unable to get a championship charge. We will see a resurgence of the days of Senna on the track again!
