Formula 1 Vice-Champion Names Red Bull's Best Driver in History

Coulthard has revealed his pick for the greatest driver in the history of the Red Bull team.

"It's Verstappen, Verstappen, and Verstappen. You can't underestimate Seb [Vettel]'s four championships, but if we look at his overall career, he didn't impress as much towards the end as he did during his title-winning days. Look at Michael Schumacher in Mercedes; he didn't perform as impressively as he did in Ferrari. This shows that everyone has their period, but in my view, putting Max at the top is a natural decision. Seb, with his four titles, is second. In third place, I'd say Mark Webber — above Daniel Ricciardo, because he was more of a mature racer, while Daniel was more like a youngster, if you will," Coulthard told Nl.motorsport.com.

Twenty-six-year-old Verstappen is a three-time Formula 1 champion (2021, 2022, 2023).
