Max Verstappen is a three-time F1 champion. The 26-year-old won his third F1 title in Qatar at the sprint race on Saturday after his closest challenger, Sergio Perez, did not finish the race. Verstappen is the 11th driver in F1 history with three or more world titles. Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher are the record holders with seven titles. Verstappen has equaled his father-in-law, Nelson Piquet, with the victory. The Brazilian also won three titles in 1981, 1983, and 1987.
Max Verstappen’s history-making run of ten F1 victories in a row ended at the Singapore Grand Prix on Sunday as the reigning champion finished fifth. Verstappen’s chances of winning were slim after a disastrous qualification session had him starting in 11th. Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz won the race. The 25-year-old had already admitted before the race that he was not expecting a win at a circuit where he has never won before. He started well, going past Liam Lawson, Nico Hulkenberg, and Kevin Magnussen, but was stuck behind Sebastian Ocon for an extended period.
