The youngest driver to compete in a Formula One race, Max Verstappen was still a minor when he participated in the 2015 Australian Grand Prix. Son of former Formula One driver Jos Verstappen, Max is a prodigious talent who is destined to leave a mark in Formula One.

Already the holder of many records, Max is the youngest driver to lead a race, the youngest to score points, and the youngest to win a race. He won his first race driving for Team Red Bull at the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix. He was only 18 years, 228 days at the time making him the only teenager in the Sport's history to coast to victory.
