The day Max Verstappen shocked the world

- Max Verstappen has made his mark in Formula 1 in a massive way but his drive at the 2016 Brazilian Grand Prix is one that will forever stand out. During wet conditions at Interlagos, Max Verstappen would finish P3 in the race behind Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton but it wasn't a simple race. Max would spin on the straight and looked to be headed into the barrier, but miraculously saved it and was able to continue. After pitting for a set of wet tyres, he found himself P16. What followed was an overtaking masterclass. Finding grip where no other driver could, and passing anybody in his way. On that day, Max Verstappen silenced any doubters and proved how good he is even in the hardest conditions. Enjoy!

I believe Toto Wolff said something like “he was deifying physics”. Just gives me chills thinking about that.
What a quote 💯
Redefining physics.
That was in a time Mercedes and Red Bull where able to give eachother complements.
Who cares what that disgusting man saying. That Nikki Lauda was taking his hat off that was more saying than that disrespectful man Toto Wolf
@@komakie no, it was a time when Toto was still angling to get Max into a Merc seat so was sucking up to him (and his Dad). He only really stopped trying in like 2018 iirc.
that photo of max on the podium is an all-time f1 photo for me
Absolutely! Iconic photo
I grew up watching Schumacher, Alonso, Seb and Lewis win but I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like Max, might be the best I’ve ever seen
It is impossible to compare. But anyone who says that Max Verstappen is not one of the best drivers ever either doesn’t like the guy or simply does not know the sport.
@@thedutchexposer I’m a Ferrari fan but you have to be stupid to think Charles can fight max in an equal car, Ferrari need to be half a second quicker to win a championship against max
Agree
I have seen Senna and he look a lot like him but don’t say that because they think Lewis is the same as Sennna but nahh Lewis is more Prost
@@okidoki878 Absolutely, i couldn't agree more!!
I remember seeing that race with my dad and he said "this kid reminds me of Michael Schumacher. He's gonna be like him one day."
Goosebumps!
@@MDE_never_dies yes
my dad said something similat, just that he compared max to senna
I grew up with F1 when I was a little boy and I've seen Senna, Schumi, Vettel etc. When we had the era Seb/Hamilton for me F1 became a bit boring also thanks to the rules. And then there was Max and yes people had there doubts, but from the first moment he showed us how great he was and showed us that he was WC material. I dare to say that Max was the biggest talent from the last 20 years and he also woke up F1 🙏🏻
He resembles Senna more I think.
It's crazy to me how there are people who still think he's not talented, he's washed and he's a gifted world champion. There's a lot of hate out there and it's such ashame. Max is one of the best drivers to watch like Alonso and Lewis. His ruthlessness, sheer speed and unapologetic nature is what we need in this sport to lift it up. I am so happy he has had a car to challenge for wins, 2021 will go down in the history books for all those amazing races from Lewis and Max. and to imagine a world where max doesn't exist 🤯.... I think we all need to be grateful for his existence 🤣
Exactly
Different perspectives do exist bro . There are people who think Lewis is gifted 2008 championship and Felippe is robbed . Ofcourse there are People who think Nico deserved the 2014 Championship, like the opposite of what Lewis fans think about Nico's triumph in 2016 . Lewis was lucky in winning the 2017 championship which Seb deserved more .
Many people consider Alonso's 2010 & 2012 seasons are greater achievement than Lewis' achievements with Mercedes Benz in Turbohybrid era . Seb has won more titles than Fernando , Is he greatest than Fernando??
Alonso won fewer titles than Lewis , Isn't He the greatest than Lewis ??
Lots and Lots of perspectives exists. The same thing works for Max . People will surely have different narratives on a single subject.
People say that either because they’re new fans who doesn’t know what they’re talking about or they said it outta spite from Verstappen fans saying the very same things to drivers that got in Verstappen’s way, like Vettel and Hamilton. When Vettel crashed, Verstappen fans cheered and mocked his legacy. When Hamilton struggled, Verstappen fans did the same. Competitive hardcore fans love to return the very favor the opposing fans did to them and their favorite drivers, and the cycle will continue til the end of time.
Well said, couldn’t agree more! It Max had come up in an era without LH, I think there wouldn’t be so much hate.
Lol exactly Skill. I was arguing with a checo fan who thinks checo is better than max if they gave checo the right car. Even if the car was built toward checo, max would still be better 🤣
It angers me so much when the Hamilton bigots say that Verstappen isn’t a great driver
The 2016 Brazilian Grand Prix proved once and for all that Verstappen is a once in a generation talent, he was able pull it off in a red bull which wasn’t even as quick as the Ferrari never mind the Mercedes on one of the most legendary and trickiest circuits on the calendar in apulling conditions
This kid is a legend
I wouldn't call them bigots but some of Max's fans do exactly the same regarding Lewis. Same toxicity.,
@@soundscape26 literally this, it’s interesting to see both sides at times do what the other side complains about
It’s quite funny tbh
Still the best performance I've seen since Senna in Monaco. Lauda taking his heat of, Toto calling in defying physics, others calling it the new Senna. I couldn't agree more.
Rainy Interlagos 2016 was the drive of his life. He might not be able to top it himself...
Could be his best!
Japan 2022 reminded me of this drives tbh
Belgium this year. While it wasn't as entertaining he did come from 14th to win the race by like 30 seconds. And noone ever doubted who would win the race...from 14th. Belgium was easily his best race but because it was so dominant and he made zero mistakes it gets overlooked to the excitement he displayed at brazil
@@PulsingKrugotvoid But Brazil 2016 was much more skill based than Spa 2022, where the Red Bull was a rocketship and few mounted any kind of defence against him. Plus Brazil was a wet race and Max was much younger, far from the experienced driver he is today.
@@soundscape26 eh your probably right. It takes no skill to start a race 12 spots behind your teammate and beat him by almost 20 secs. That happens every year your right. Look I get it, it's not as exciting for the uneducated fan. But it was flawless. He made mistakes in Brazil as much as everyone wants to forget he did. The whole reason it was so amazing was cuz he made massive mistake and almost binned it.
Brazil 2016 was one of the best live race i ever watched
This was the first F1 race I’d ever seen. I’ve been a fan ever since!
The fact that Max was faster in clean air than both Merc drivers who drove the W07 which undoubtedly is in the top 3 most dominant cars of all time shows what a performance Max showed that day. If RB didn‘t screw him over with the strategy he‘d have won that race 100%
I dont think. Lewis was also on a another level
@@MDE_never_dies Lewis did it too. even in worse car than max
@@MDE_never_dies you are too biased to see that sadly
@@alexlacl8730 LoL
One of the best drives of all times
Definitely!
Spa 2022 is probably Max's best. Absolutely dominant, and exactly what he has been working towards for all these years.
First ever F1 race I watched live. Safe to say I've been a fan ever since
This video made me go back and rewatch it. Crazy race and Max was on another level, he put on a one man spectacle from the start. From that Nico overtake, to the save, then coming through the field with about 10 laps to go. Brundle couldn’t find the words. Still one of if not his best race.
My first F1 Race! 🥰 My Mate told me, you have to watch F1. There is this new guy Max Verstappen, he is pretty good. Oh boy he was right. And I was going to watch F1 more frequently after this. Because of this race. And got hooked after +- 2 years or so, after looking up al the races and the history of it. This race is pretty special to me. 🧡
Me too!
This is the first f1 race I've watched. I didn't know a lot about it, but I know what I saw was something special.
I remember this race like it was yesterday, from *that* save to some quality overtakes. A wet weather masterclass
And he's still shocking. Hungary, Spa, Imola 2022 were fantastical.🧡
Max can have drives like this and people will say its about the car and such. So much is the hate the guy has from the 44 fanboys. But great video about this very memorable race.
Two way street…
My brother in Christ it’s literally calling the pot kettle black
Do you know how many years Lewis performances was getting derided for
Max is currently at the top and he has bear the same burden others had before him
I just watched the full race of this in F1 TV!! he gave me goosebumps!!!!!!
From the first moment I saw Max Verstappen race in F1, I just KNEW he was gonna be a World Champion. Same with both Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg back in the time they debuted.
2016 was such an underrated season, probably my favourite since I’ve been watching F1 after 2021 & 2012.
He was taken by surprise, but, and there lies the big difference, he could save the day. A lot of people said, yeah lucky, while watching the replay again and again his actions were deliberate and effective. Also he proved last season it wasn’t a fluke, his spin at Hungary was just one example.
Is still his greatest drive...
I was packing my suitcase for my departure for the USA the next day, but I stopped packing and sat down to watch the greatest race I have ever seen in my life.
Agreed. Interlagos 2016 is the GP that sold me he would be a champion someday.
This race and Max is SO GOOD! I was even more impressed during that post race breakdown interview as he told *how* he made that save or found more grip. I remember everyone was like, what’s he doing behind the safety car is he an idiot? Then, boom overtake overtake overtake. So that interview somewhat saved the extremely long red flags as it added to the story. Toto also said after it was the Max Show haha
The Brazil Crowd Chanted Senna, Senna to him! Unfortunately, with the Newer Gen Brazil Crowds now, Boo him! How quickly things turned around!
Seb was booed in Monza until 2014 . The Same Seb was cheered in Monza from 2015 onwards . Lewis got booed in most of the races in 2021, interlagos was one among the few which cheered for him . Same happened with Max . Lewis got a big fanbase there . They cheered for him until he became a challenge for their favourite Driver.
In my opinion Brazill 2016 for Max is what Britain 2008 is for Lewis. Both in there second year, both in the rain and both just from another planets that day.
Apart from Hamilton won Britain 2008 by over 60 seconds, whereas Verstappen spun trying to keep up with Lewis here. Really not comparable. People forget Lewis actually won this race very comfortably, and was never under threat even when Verstappen was running 2nd!
@@thomasconway95 Yes but he saved it and also red bull had a shit strategy and put him on the backfoot. he went crazy that day
@@rhinom1969 probably because he was on brand new tyres overtaking backmarkers and midfielders. The Red Bull was a great chassis that year. Their engine disadvantage was neutralised completely at altitude and in the wet.
@@thomasconway95 yeah but the 2008 McLaren was a Car capable of winning a Championship
@@thomasconway95 Just a simplistic view if you just forget all the other things going on. First Lewis started from pool.
Second Lewis changed his tyres one time less than Max.
Third Lewis had a far better car then Max.
Fourth Lewis had about 10 years more experience than Max.
Fifth Max had less than half a race to go when he was in fourteenth place.
Imagine he won the race that day, easily one of the greatest drives in f1 history among ayrton senna’s
This is one of those things where it feels like a fluke of nature. If the car setup was different, if Max had slept 1h less that night, ate anything different, the rain was just a bit more or just a bit less. It feels like a performance that is on the edge of a knife, it was so perfect.
butterfly effect.
I think it's one of those things that sound simple in theory ("you just have to drive rain lines. Those are different from dry lines") but almost impossible to pull off in real life, with a f1 car. Yet Verstappen pulled it off. I've come to understanding it's more common in a cart. It takes exceptional skill to controll a f1 car like it's a cart. The same with all the spins-turning-to-360s he makes. In the beginning you think he got lucky. But he's been doing it now so consistently, you can't put it all on luck anymore. The only other driver who was comparable in driving skills that I know of was Senna.
See, Max was so good out of the gate, and 2016 proved it
Best race of max is for me Belgian GP 2022, P14 to P1, in les than 1 round he was P8.
5 years later, Max would be fighting for an F1 championship…and won.
There are times where talent completely powered the car. Where someone announced he had arrived. Vettel in Monza 2008 was one example. Senna Monaco 84 and this one
Agreed , this for me was one of the best drives we have seen for a very long time , maybe the best ever drive from max or any other driver.
I stopped watching F1 pretty much when Michael first retired.
When I heard there's a new rain master, I slowly started following it again.
I agree, imo one of his top 3 performances. Austin 21 is also very underrated.
Like Rocketpoweredmohawk said:
"Do you know how much childhood trauma you have to go through, to be as good as Max?"
Goosebumps
..
As much as I dont like Max's somewhat agressive driving,I have got to admit,he has huge talent.From such an early age,he drives like theres no such option as failure(thanks to daddy Jos😅).He manages to push his rivals to their absolute limit which is lovely.Sometimes he comes off worse,sometimes his rival but I find it really entertaining.He makes the greatest drivers drive at their highest level to beat him and I find that lovely.
It's not agressieve driving what Max does, it is racing. It is not touring in your car on sunday morning. If some F1 drivers have problems with that than they have to look for a other occupation.
"That boy just goes and finds grip everywhere"
-Brundle on commentary
Agreed it was Max's rain master moment. That race was a Senna/Michael sit up and take notice moment. Thanks for the great video.
Schumacher, Alonso, Seb & Max......all of the greatest F1 drivers in recent times.
I agree that was one of the sickest moments of car control I ever seen in F1
Max has been in F1 for so many years already… amazing. Go go, Super Max!
Watching the Max's onboard (via Formula One CZcams) truthly show that he was in the zone that day, probably had worst visibility from his visor.
The spray from cars he had to overtake and yet was lapping faster than even the front runners. Truthly a magical moment, hope see this feat again.
Max saved F1 the moment he became an F1 driver @ 17 and beyond.
I went to bed after Kimi crashed and the race being red-flagged
Only to find that my friend mentioned me several times about Max had entered "Senna Mode" after the race restarted. Then I watched the highlights and saw Max' brilliance
If people think that Spain 2016 was just a fluke, Brazil 2016 should convince them
Max king of F1 💯🔥
Finally that someone talks about it!! This is still my favourite race
Hello my name is Dominik Jozwiak i have Autism spectrum i have watched your video on Valencia street circuit i have visited this track last summer August 2022 i enjoyed it and i am a Ferrari fan as well.
that's why i love f1 cause of these unbelievable moments 🙌
This together with belgium 2022 was amazing
100% correct
Absolutely love all of your videos man, keep it up❤️
Much appreciated bro thank you
@@MadeByPerspective Brazil is by far my favourite race and I don't care if I have to wake up at 4 in Aus to watch it. Worth every minute
Spain 2016 was, at the time, thought of as a fluke for Max Verstappen. He was obviously a great talent, but it was put down to the Rosberg-Hamilton crash rather than his own skill.
Very true! He has definitely proven his talent since then. 💯
In a sense yes, under normal circumstances it would've been a Mercedes 1-2 with some ease. On the other hand it doesn't detract form Max for being in the right place at the right time to snatch that win on his Red Bull debut.
@@soundscape26 also hè defended his position from Kimi Raikkonen over more then 30 laps that’s unbelievable
People say that he won because of Merc crashing. How many times have we seen drivers take the lead for the first time and then lose that position because of a mistake. Max made no mistakes and was pressured for 30 laps by a world champion.
I have just watched the race again, and his safe on the straight, just before the Raikönen incident, was immensely impressive as well. What a drive, from 16th to 3 in about 13 laps. Wow! Wow!
He showed what a special and unique talent he then was (and still is) at only 19 years old and only in his second season in F1. He drove around more experienced drivers as if they were driving in a lower category. Chapeau! Hats off (like Niki Lauda once again did when bumping into Max's father after the race).
Very good, keep it up with these daily uploads and you gonna crack the algorithm 💪💪💪
Thanks! 👍🏼
very true, his finest hour
I’m an overtake fan ;)
The day I became a fan of Max.
Simply lovely, really take me back to Lewis in Fuji '07 and Ayrton in Estoril '85 (although I wasn't even born in his era).
Those three, when they enter the flow state or "the zone" when the rain drops, they become completely different driver...
Simply simply lovely👏👏
You are 100% correct. I too so the race. Unbelievable driver. He is Super Max. Best to you.
well said
Max power everyone will realise one day there is nobody to compete with him.
I'd like to add that during the race, it looked like Max was driving in the dry compared to the other drivers.
Max shocked the world at the 2015 Australian Grand Prix as 17-year-old kid.
The same way how they where shocked he got the Title in 2021 in that fashion....
Brazil 2016 was such a crazy race from Max. Made the field look like amateurs.
I felt bad for Hulk though as he was in a position where he could fight for the podium but got a puncture under the safety car that sent him to the back of the field. Still was able to claw his way back to 7th but it should have been so much more.
This is also my fav Verstappen race though he won many others.
The crowd stayed in the pooring rain.
Like said my fav Verstappen race.
his best race 100%
Talent of the century. Max is one of the greats that was destined since his karting days, in karting you get drivers winning multiple championships like Max did, what you don't see is others doing it the way Max did it! Total domination exactly like he is doing now in F1, that's not normal.
Max RB19 car is a special car and other drivers could win the championship on it, but one thing is certain with Max as their team mate their fight for the championship will be over by the summer pause!
It was his best race indeed!

Hey man, I'd look at adding a de-esser to your audio. For some reason, this video has some harsh audio, unlike your other videos.
Love your content and am a long time fan 🏎️
Agree!
I think that race has a full replay on yt somewhere I watch it time to time
Brazil all day. But i’m dutchie so i noticed during the race 😂
Loving the schedule, but don't wear yourself out 🤗
I believe max’s great drive was this race.
Remember that it was one race why Helmut wanted to have Max driving for RB, that was Norrisring in 2014 where Max in the wet was lapping seconds faster per lap then anyone else. He then said, we need that guy, a few weeks later they pulled him just out of the jaws of the Wolff and 3 weeks later they decided to put him straight in F1. This to the horror of a lot of experienced drivers but one…. Alonso never had a problem with it.
And neither had former driver and former champion Niki Lauda...
Who even did put off his cap for father Jos Verstappen after this race!
@@Franky46Boy correct, it were the whiners without the real talent who had the most problems with it.
love wet races. shows the skill of the drivers rather than how much power the car has.
In an interview with Martin Brundle Max said they moved back the wall a couple of meters. If they hadn't done that he would've hit the wall.
Very strong impression to me that race… He was like… a baby whale in an elephant migration parade when they followed the safety car. 😂
Where other drivers take two tries, Max simply takes one.
Wow someone finally liked this comment without immediately unliking it again😂
2016 was 7 years ago💀
"it's like he was a professional". Dude, he literally was a Professional. If you're paid for your sport, ergo you're a professional.
He and Hamilton were in a class of their own that day. If I remember right they were the only drivers who were habitually taking the really wide line around the Curva do Sol (Turn 3) while virtually everyone else tended to stick nearer the normal racing line. But while Hamilton was barely troubled up front Verstappen for sure stole the show with his drive. From mugging Rosberg around the outside of Curva do Sol to that save to his charge up the field in the final stint. I think this was the race he properly announced himself as a star of the future. Yes we'd seen flashes in 2015 and in 2016 thus far, but Brazil was perhaps his most polished performance up to that point.
i honestly think he could've won if he didn't slip and if his team didn't mess up his strategy
3:10 wdym like some kind of professional? He's literally an F1 driver 😂
That day is my birthday😂😀
Happy birthday for November 🤣
I don’t wanna be that guy but what’s up with the audio?
This video gives a horror story vibe but it's fun to watch
Pers and his spooky soundtracks. 😄
OMG i think this guy is talking like reaaaally slow but i like the content usually. If u r like me try to use x1.25 speed it makes it a normal video :D
Hahah I was talking a bit slow in this vid. Most likely because it’s unscripted so I have to think a bit more 🧠
not hating on you sir, but less filler words and faster videos, i had to watch on 1.75speed, bit slow going and yeah..im sure youll improve!
Bro Lakers, really? My man!
MEX VERSTEPPEN REALLY????
Zo zeg je zijn naam nu eenmaal in het Engels opa
Belgium 2021 will always be the greastest performance by any driver
Hello
Welcome back 👋🏽
Man went from 4th on the grid to 3rd
