Ex-piloto de F1 também revelou que ficou impressionado com o desempenho de Verstappen no GP do Brasil, em 2024: “Foi inacreditável”, definiu
A Red Bull Racing (RBR) está longe do protagonismo que lhe conduziu a um tetracampeonato de pilotos com Max Verstappen, além de dois títulos de construtores, nas temporadas 2022 e 2023 da Fórmula 1 (F1). Neste ano, a escuderia taurina é somente a quarta colocada no campeonato entre equipes. Tem 162 pontos, dos quais 155 foram somados pelo holandês.
Em entrevista concedida ao podcast F1 Beyond The Grid, o brasileiro Emerson Fittipaldi comparou Verstappen a Ayrton Senna. De acordo com o ex-piloto, o atual contexto esportivo vivido pelo competidor taurino é semelhante ao que o ídolo nacional vivenciou na categoria.
“Acho que Max está em um ponto incrível agora em termos de seu nível de pilotagem. Ele carrega a Red Bull nas costas. Não está apenas pilotando, masestá carregando a Red Bull em condições difíceis”, iniciou.
Fittipaldi também disse que ficou impressionado, quando assistiu Verstappen correr no Brasil. “Eu estava no GP de Interlagos, em 2024. O que ele fez foi inacreditável. É semelhante ao estilo de pilotagem de Ayrton Senna. Frenagem, entrada de curva, meio de curva e saída. Ele consegue usar a aderência máxima do carro em todas as situações. Sempre dirige no limite da estabilidade do carro e faz uso perfeito das quatro rodas”, relatou.
Números de Emerson Fittipaldi na Fórmula 1
De acordo com dados do site Motorsport Stats, o ex-piloto tem dois títulos mundiais. Ele venceu 14 das 114 provas que disputou. Além disso, subiu 35 vezes no pódio e foi seis vezes pole position. Fittipaldi também somou 289 pontos e abandonou 49 etapas.
Ele integrou o grid da Fórmula 1 de 1970 até 1980. Nesse período, representou as escuderias Lotus, World Wide Racing (WWR), McLaren e Marlboro Texaco. O brasileiro também foi titular de uma escuderia que levava o próprio sobrenome, a Fittipaldi Automotive. A equipe foi patrocinada por Copersucar e Skol.

Atletico Madrid vs. Botafogo live stream, where to watch Club World Cup: Odds, prediction, pick, lineups
Atletico Madrid face off against Botafogo in the final round of group stage games at the Club World Cup, knowing that they likely have to win if they are to avoid an ignominiously early exit from the competition. A draw might be enough for Diego Simeone's side but would be contingent on Paris Saint-Germain losing to Seattle Sounders at the same time.Even a narrow win might not be enough for the men from La Liga, who could well pay the price for their heavy defeat to PSG in their opening game. Beating Botafogo by a margin of three goals or more would get the job done, even if results don't go their way in the other game but the results of the Brazilian side so far in this competition would suggest that a big win is not going to be […]
