How Max Verstappen is a Sim Racing GENIUS

damn this guy is good he should think about f1

Amazing! This is the first video of “e-racing or irace or whatever) and im hooked! Sub for life! Keep em comin !!! 👊🏻🫡

imagne playing i racing and seeing :Max Verstappen😑

Not sure why the caption says Scott Mansell, when you're clearly Hugh Jackman...

I agree so much with mid engine weight distribution for getting rotation on turns. It’s crazy how the world record time on Bathurst was set with a front engine vehicle though. Makes you kind of curious about weight distribution relative to elevation changes throughout a track.

But can he do it stoned!

Its because his Sim is rigged just like Abu Dhabi 21 😂😂😂

aren't todays F1 driver also training using simulation machine?

*after this video I watch "why lewis hamilton hates the simulator". it is like two different world.😂

NO WAY Max Verstappen is good at racing who would have thought !!!!!

Max Verstappen, sim gamer and F1 driver.
Lando, Twitch streamer, part time F1 driver.
Yuki Tsunoda, chef, interim F1 driver.
Kimi, rally driver, F1 hobbyist.

I think it’s a stretch to call sim racing a sport. That’s like saying that league of legends is a sport.

Running someone off the track whether they are a lap behind or not is considered a cuntish move, we need to stop saying this is ok, it's not!

My f1 conspiracy theory is that the redbull car is reverse engineered /designed backwards from max’s sim data ,instead of the normal build car ,enter its settings into sim then Use sim. I mean it only makes sense to have a top 3 sim driver and use that to your advantage, that’s why I think checo doesn’t do as well in the same car because it’s literally molded for max

I’m no serious gamer by any means, that being because I know the time to put in to be this good in these sims is insane. For a guy to do this on top of being this good irl is wild.

If he prefers oversteer wouldn't a front engine GT car be better suited than a mid engine ? Weight more towards the front should be better I thought ?

Are you related to Nigel Mansel?

The reason might be, he is a F1 champion, but I might be wrong.

Whats harder?

Max is like a IT engineer...who works hard in the office...and then comes back home and immediately starts his system to learn the next coding lesson

Great video

Max was born and raised to be exactly where he is today. He probably can't tie his own shoes, but he is one of the best drivers in the world today. Id like to see him drive a winged sprint or a silver crown on dirt

To do something that much daily in different mediums, you have to be addicted to it. Max is extremely lucky that his addiction directly helps him improve his career. Many other drivers may relax by eating out, celebrating, reading books, watching movies, whatever, but Max literally relaxes by playing racing SIMs. It's a huge natural advantage for him. Even if it's not 1-to-1 practice for F1, it still helps and gets him more racing hours.

MAX MAX MAX SUPER MAX!

Imagine your racing max and he juts pushes you off 😭😭

why is max verstappen a genius in sim racing? Because he just won 3 consecutive f1 championships

You need to have predispositions to pursue real racing.
And you also need to have predispositions to Simracing.
There are few people who are good at both.
Most Simracers think that they would go really fast in the real world, just like they do in front of the monitor.
But the truth is that they wouldn't have gone as fast for anything in the world.
And if they tried, they would crash 🤷
Again, on the other hand, I know some really good Drifters and when they try to do the same thing in the simulator, they can't do it.
Yes, simulators themselves now offer a lot, and simracing equipment has advanced tremendously.
But it's still just a simulation and two different worlds!
Which Max is one of the few who can combine.

IF you look at his account, there are lots of races that he "'drove' when he was in F1 car on track if you look at timings. So...pointless

As someone that has never sim raced without vr at home except testing big fancy rigs at events that i could never effort😂. I would definitely say going that nost likely the switch from real is harder because yes you need to get over fear/build trust and train for the g forces. But losing that amount of senses seems insanely hard.

If he stitches over to sim racing an hour or 2 after a real race, that's the reason he is very good. More time put into a thing the right way the better you will become

Im pretty sure all of those F1 drivers would be up top in the sim racing so im not really impressed there. Id like to see a pro sim driver in an F1 car, the nerd would probably pass out in the first corner 🤣

Won a Grand Prix and was on i racing 3 hours later 😂

great drivers put the cars to its limits not the rules , runing wide , brake checks , dive bombs is just low . stop idolizing people and glorifying their bad habits

They about to make a movie about him like grand tourismo

I wish my parents were rich I would’ve told them I wanted to be a F1/GT driver. They couldn’t even afford to buy me a Honda so I could tune it and zoom . 😢

I think doing both can be very valuable. I started racing the passes when I was 16 in a crappy NA subaru and it taught me how to corner without grip, steer using weight shifting, and feel through a corner. I eventually started sim racing, and it gives you a place to push your limits. You don't have to leave a safety margin in Assetto when you can just reset the lap if you crash. It lets you push your tires to the limit and expand your skills in a different angle.

that is genuinely insane how he can go from winning a real race to then hop right into a sim to win again. for me i'd want a breather from racing for a few days to recharge. but its like max nowadays recharges during his races after the starts to get ready for sim racing 💀💀💀

Why? Because he doesn’t blink of course. He’s seeing .001% more of the track. A massive competitive edge.

Give me the same rig... Id beat him

give me same set up as him, i'll beat him

Max, Max, Max, I am tired of listening how good is he at sim…

It is TIME for things to CHANGE!
It is TIME for me to get a computer again!

The King of NFS 2 (1995) is COMING BACK!
😂

Hear me now and believe me later - I am going to do it in 3 quick steps:

1. Buying new PC
2. Installing NFS 2 to practice with the perfect machine - Ferrari F50 (my precious 😊) - let’s hope it runs In those modern, fancy quantum computers now…😂
3. After my workout I will install the games in which the record times neesd to be corrected, and the initials as well.

And ONE MORE THING (as Steve Jobs would say) - I’ll beat him with only the keyboard keys - A, Z and arrows! (there were no fancy racing wheels and pedals in ‘95 as well)

The challenge is On!


Peace! 😊

Just starting to get into this But what I see is the young blokes are killing it their reaction time is so much quicker
And no I've won some race's cause the Hare & the Tortoise any how loveing it

Controversial but I think max is a better sin racer than real world driver. Although still one of the best out there

Did he try to play wreck fest ???

iRacing or Assetto Corsa or F1 24?

He brings up a good point about the sim. It’s hard to get used to sim racing when you’ve been racing with feel

haha imagine getting into a fire suit to sim race.. HAAHAHA.. Most of em even have on their virginity protector gloves.. Meanwhile Max just hops on with his hat on and goes to work.

did Max ever play Trackmania?
