Draw prediction Frederic Vasseur: It makes no sense to talk about Verstappen`s title at McLaren - it is impossible to separate the contribution of the driver and the car

Vasser doubts Verstappen would have won outside of Red Bull. Ferrari boss Frederic Vasser considered it pointless to speculate about whether Red Bull driver Max Verstappen would have become a champion in other teams.
The four-time world champion himself claimed that he would win the title in McLaren and Ferrari in 2024.
It makes no sense to think or say that Verstappen would have won the same way in another team. It is impossible to separate the contribution of the pilot and the machine. There are so many factors.
It makes no sense to say that Verstappen would have won at McLaren, since the quality of the team from Woking also depends on the feedback and work of the current drivers, the Frenchman said in an interview with Autosprint.
At the same time, Vasseur noted the merits of the Dutchman:
In 2022 and 2023, the Red Bull car was much better. When you have a margin of six-tenths, you are wrong, and no one notices, your performances are embellished. But this year, even a small mistake was enough for the Milton Keynes team to drop to sixth position.
What has impressed me about Verstappen this year is his ability to get the best out of him even when the team is struggling. And this is a lesson for us, because during such a competitive year there are races when we are not the strongest, and we need to show our best.
To win, you need to prove yourself in those moments when not everything works out. He did it.
Helmut Marko agrees that Verstappen would have become champion in McLaren and Ferrari: No one else would have won the title with Red Bull
George Russell said that he would have taken the title in McLaren and Red Bull: Verstappen can be beaten, Norris has lost a lot of points
