Combining an F1 race weekend with a sim racing world competition event (while all competing F1 drivers are focusing on the race weekend events only: FPs, qualies and race), and win both events: which other F1 driver ever pulled this off ?
Max is the most agile, dynamic, and deft driver we have ever seen in F1. He can drive whatever he gets and drive it fast. These skills translate to being able to drive very different style cars and when you race in Le Mans, etc. with BoP it really comes down to the driver. I don’t think there is another F1 driver who could do what he does and most of them don’t want to try their hand in series where the cars are equalized since it would expose them against the bigger pool of drivers. Alonso is the only driver in F1 besides Max I’d put in this category.
I’d like to see him win the triple crown - only Jim Clark did this and Alonso made a good run. Seeing Max do it would be awesome.
