As the checkered flag waved at the Dutch Grand Prix on Sunday to greet home favorite Max Verstappen over the finish line, the Formula One driver took another step towards history.
The win in the Netherlands was Verstappen’s eleventh of the season and ninth in a row, drawing him level with Sebastian Vettel for the most consecutive victories in F1 history. The German, then driving for Red Bull, completed the same feat during his 2013 title win. Home advantage is something that matters to Verstappen.
“It was probably one of the more difficult races to win, but nine in a row is something I never even thought about,” said Verstappen. “I’m very happy with that but I’m in general very happy to win here in front of my home crowd.” Verstappen was asked after the race about being on the precipice of F1 history and the prospect of a 10th consecutive victory at the Italian Grand Prix at Monza next weekend, but he batted away the question instantly. “I’ll think about it next week,” he said.
