Verstappen ended the year 12th in the standings, ahead of team-mate Carlos Sainz, with his performance good enough for rookie of the year. The Dutchman impressed with multiple points finishes - including in the second race of the season in Malaysia - although regularly gained attention for his hard racing antics, no more so than after his terrifying high-speed accident at the Monaco Grand Prix. Max Verstappen became the youngest driver to ever race in Formula 1 when making his debut at the 2015 Australian Grand Prix for Toro Rosso, aged just 17 years and 166 days old. Verstappen, who stands 5ft 11ins tall (1.81m) and lives in the palatial surroundings of Monaco on the French Riviera, literally has the F1 world at his feet.
Still just 25 years of age, Verstappen is arguably not yet near the peak of his incredible powers, despite beating great rival Lewis Hamilton in December 2021 to win his first world championship, and following that with a dominant second championship triumph in 2022. He does race very much under Dutch nationality though - as evidenced by the massive armies of orange-clad fans who follow him to tracks around the world.
