Max Verstappen is a four-time Formula 1 champion.
Verstappen won his fourth consecutive title late Saturday night in Las Vegas with a fifth-place finish. Verstappen simply needed to stay ahead of Lando Norris to clinch the championship with two races to go.
Verstappen is the fifth driver to win at least four straight titles joining Lewis Hamilton, Sebastian Vettel, Michael Schumacher and Juan Manuel Fangio. Hamilton won four consecutive championships from 2017-2020, meaning there have only been two F1 champions in the past eight seasons.
