Having placed his foot firmly on his competitor’s throats, only a remarkable turn of events – unusual to the point of unique – will see Max Verstappen release the pressure in 2023... F1
If his second title had the feel of a natural next step for Verstappen, 2023 could quite feasibly be the point at which he begins to paint an entire era orange in a sport that routinely lends itself to prolonged periods of crushing one-team, one-driver domination.that Verstappen was just being “polite” in predicting a tougher challenge in 2023.
If the first title often breeds the next, the third year is the stage when a certain level of success is normalised and becomes the expectation rather than the hope. It was in this area where Hamilton, Verstappen’s great rival, stumbled in his first attempt to win three titles in a row in 2016 – a year with a similarly compelling pre-pre-season narrative to 2023.
Rather than easing to a third consecutive title, however, Hamilton almost inexplicably allowed himself to be outwitted and outmanoeuvred by Rosberg over the season. Hamilton may have later considered 2016 the most important learning experience of his career – the moment he realised that nothing, in terms of optimising the tools and the team around him, could be left untouched – but even now it remains one of the great missed opportunities.
The process continued further in 2022, even if fumes of fury continued to escape from his helmet during his DRS frustrations in Barcelona and in the immediate aftermath of Red Bull’s fuel misjudgement in Singapore qualifying.
