2023 Fantasy Outlook
After an overall dominant performance last season, Verstappen is expecting a repeat in 2023 after coming away with a Formula One record of 15 wins in a season and the undisputed title of World Champion. The RB18 proved to be no match for the rest of the grid as Verstappen repeatedly battled his way through the pack to finish first a whopping 65% of the time, earning 454 championship points by the conclusion of Abu Dhabi. The driver of the No. 1 Red Bull found no consistent competition with any of the other constructors and kept a firm grip on the championship standings following his only 2 DNFs of the season at Bahrain and Melbourne. Verstappen is truly the man to beat going into the 2023 season; drivers without a consistently reliable vehicle and discipline behind the wheel will find him an insurmountable opponent on track, unless Team Red Bull finds themselves facing a new, unforeseen challenge with the car this year.

P2 at Jeddah
Formula One
April 20, 2025
Verstappen finished second in the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix Formula 1 race at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit on Sunday evening.
ANALYSIS
Verstappen would get a tough wheel-to-wheel battle into turn 1 after the lights out from Oscar Piastri. The Red Bull Racing star would retain the lead but only because he went off track and gained an advantage through the outside of the turn. Verstappen would lead all the way to his opening pitstop on lap 21 but would have to serve a 5-second penalty for his off-track excursion. That would put him on the comeback trail the rest of the race. Verstappen could only manage to close within 3-seconds of Piastri in the closing laps and would have to settle for the runner-up finish in Saudi Arabia.
