Verstappen on what he would never do as an F1 team boss

Max Verstappen has offered his perspective on ideal Formula 1 driver line-ups, stating he would never pair two top young drivers if he were a team boss. The Red Bull star believes such a strategy is "not sustainable" and can ultimately "break up" the team due to internal rivalries. Instead, Verstappen advocates for a combination of an experienced driver and a rising talent, comparing it to Real Madrid's football squad management, where younger players are groomed to replace older ones. He emphasizes that intense championship battles reveal true colours and lead to a "two-sided garage," which he would avoid. Verstappen also noted the unfairness of comparing legendary drivers across different eras.
