Max Verstappen counters Kyle Larson's confidence with respect and a reality check on racing skills.
During an interview with motorsport content creator Ash Vandelay, Verstappen shared his thoughts on the unique attributes required across different racing disciplines."Kyle Larson did Indy and he does dirt. I think that's really cool too."
Despite the commendation, the Red Bull driver was quick to downplay the productive merits of comparing skills from distinct motorsport forms like Formula 1 and NASCAR. He noteed the in-built challenges and specialization required in each, asserting: "We should not have that debate because everyone is good in their own right. I wouldn't be good in dirt. Maybe if I practice... I don't know. I think at the end of the day, a good racing driver picks up things quite quickly."“Honestly I think I should first say we should not have that debate. Cause everyone is good in their own right.”“There’s no way can get into a Sprint Car and win the Knoxville Nationals. There’s no way he can go win the Chili Bowl.
“There’s probably no way I can go win a Formula 1 race at Monaco, but I think I’d have a better shot at him just because of the car element. “That’s what gives me ease and confidence that, like, I know I’m better than him. Maybe not in an open-wheel IndyCar or Formula 1 car, but that’s one discipline. I think I would beat him in everything else. You can quote that.”Lydia is the lead editor of F1 editorial.
