Verstappen é indiferente à nomeação da TIME: "Não sei o que fazer com isso"

Max Verstappen não venceu o Grande Prêmio em Miami. Embora ele tenha mais do que desejado a vitória para seu bom amigo Lando Norris, perder a vitória número 59 pode ter prejudicado um pouco o holandês. Afinal de contas, vencer é a maior motivação para ele pilotar na Fórmula 1, disse Verstappen à Sky Sports.

“Gosto de vencer. Gosto de estar no topo”, declarou o tricampeão mundial à emissora de F1 do Reino Unido. “Gosto de trabalhar com todas as pessoas fantásticas que temos na equipe. Sempre tentando chegar o mais próximo possível da perfeição. Acho que isso é o que realmente me motiva”.

O holandês é tricampeão mundial, e um quarto título parece iminente nesta temporada. Verstappen ficaria feliz com isso, mas não é como se ganhar títulos mundiais fosse seu objetivo agora. Na verdade, ele não tem mais objetivos na Fórmula 1, disse o holandês. “Trata-se apenas de ficar onde estou no momento. Estou apenas tentando ganhar mais, porque já conquistei tudo o que queria no esporte. Quero fazer todos os tipos diferentes de corrida fora da Fórmula 1 em um determinado momento”.

Escolhido pela revista TIME

O mundo exterior vê Verstappen como mais do que apenas um piloto ávido por mais vitórias. A revista TIME também considera o holandês um modelo a ser seguido. A revista norte-americana até acha que Verstappen está entre as 100 pessoas mais influentes do mundo. “Honestamente, não sei o que fazer com isso. Acho que é bom, mas para mim, pessoalmente, não está mudando minha vida e não muda o que estou fazendo aqui, o que considero muito mais importante. Não é algo que, quando eu cresci, eu pensava: ‘Preciso estar entre as 100 pessoas mais influentes do mundo'”.
