Helmut Marko extols Max Verstappen

Helmut Marko’s words

Helmut Marko pampers Max Verstappen: “A few years ago I compared him to Senna and was laughed at. Gradually the pundits of that time are running out of arguments. He has grown not only as a driver but also in personality. The incredible lap he did in qualifying in Monaco comes close to Senna’s. Max is the best in every condition.”

No doubt about the title race: “It’s already over. But in reality Max never saw Perez as a serious threat.”

“Usually in Barcelona we are even stronger. Last year we had to fight with Ferrari, but they did everything wrong. Ni regrets that there is less tension on the track. And in fact the TV ratings on Sky are dropping dramatically and need to be watched carefully. In Austria fortunately we have an uninterrupted boom, as evidenced by ticket sales.”
