Berger: Verstappen is definitely one of the future world champions

In his conversations and forecasts, Gerhard Berger has repeatedly been able to evaluate drivers and especially the new stars in the Formula 1 sky. This was also the case in his interview for the newspaper "Auto Motor und Sport".

“For me, Max Verstappen is definitely one of the future world champions. I like his power with him. When someone overtakes him, he does everything to overtake him back, "Berger said.

In his opening season, the young Dutchman scored an enviable 49 points in a helpless Toro Rosso car. “Obviously nothing throws him off track. Even when he fell out or stood sideways on the racetrack, he spoke perfectly calmly after the tie. I am convinced that this is one of the next world champions, "Berger continued.

Berger, however, praised not only Verstappen, but also his teammate Carlos Sainz, whom he believes did a great job last season.

He also included Red-Bull driver Daniel Riccard among the currently excellent drivers. “Daniel Riccardo is constantly overtaking and fighting. He is constantly fast, knows what he wants and also has a very good and strong personality. However, he has the misfortune of being in a team that has already worn out a bit, "concluded Berger.
