In a shocking turn of events, former F1 champion Damon Hill has stirred up the motorsport world by declaring Max Verstappen as a possible contender for the title of the greatest driver of all time in Formula 1. The debate over whether Verstappen deserves the prestigious title of the ‘GOAT’ in F1 has been raging on among fans, but Hill’s bold statement seems to have settled the matter once and for all.

Hill, a respected figure in the racing community, compared Verstappen to legends like Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher, indicating that the Dutch driver’s exceptional skill and prowess on the track put him in the same league as these iconic figures. The ex-champion did not shy away from acknowledging Verstappen’s exceptional talent, labeling him as a ‘phenomenon’ and emphasizing his unparalleled effectiveness, preparedness, maturity, and speed.

Despite facing initial challenges in the 2025 F1 season with an underperforming car, Verstappen managed to clinch a significant victory at the Emilia Romagna GP, showcasing his resilience and determination. Red Bull’s Motorsport Consultant, Dr. Helmut Marko, noted a positive shift in Verstappen’s performance, highlighting his newfound comfort with the car during the race weekend.
