Max Verstappen already knows what ‘beast‘ will have in hand in 2023. Red Bull presented its new car in New York, and also took the opportunity to lay the foundations for an increasingly near future that will bring Ford back to Formula 1. The two-time champion, who won the World Cup with tremendous superiority last year, has spoken and has pointed out who according to him will be his biggest rival for next year.
And no, it’s not going to suit you particularly well. Neither Ferrari nor Carlos Sainz. Because for him, despite the great start to 2022 that they had in Maranello and the fact that Mercedes was not completely fine until well into the season, his great adversary will be those who drive a German car.
They will be those of the star, and of Ferrari only have doubts and unknowns despite acknowledging his strength.
“Ferrari will be strong, but it is difficult to know how much they will be”, says in statements that include in ‘I amMotor’.
Of Mercedes, zero doubts: “If they understand the car well, and improve it, They will be the maximum rival for 2023. When they had everything in order they seemed very strong.”
“It has shown in recent years that they are a great team. That they have a very good group of people”, insists Verstappen.
In that sense, he puts all his trust in the Red Bull factory: “I hope a strong car is made, with a good engine to fight with them”.
