The former team principal of the Formula 1 team AlphaTauri (formerly Toro Rosso), **Franz Tost**, articulated the uniqueness of ex-F1 driver **Sebastian Vettel** and Red Bull racer **Max Verstappen**.

«In my opinion, champions share some similarities. I frequently receive inquiries about the differences between Verstappen, Vettel, and other drivers. For me, it comes down to a few key aspects.

Firstly, Max is one of the most talented racers I have ever worked with, and the same can be said for Sebastian. Secondly, they are 100% focused on their profession. Many people tend to underestimate this factor, yet it is incredibly significant. They live and breathe Formula 1. It’s their passion in every aspect, and they have proven this time and again.
