Racers Gustav Burton and Jordan Albert have a podcast together. They spoke highly of Max Verstappen, who not only races in Formula 1 but also participates in sim racing. Together with racer James Baldwin, who was a guest, they came to a striking conclusion about the Dutchman.

“Anything he does pretty good. Yeah. Anything he does that involves cars, whether it's virtually real, he's unbelievable,” Burton started on the Dutchman who has already become world champion four times in the pinnacle of motorsport. Burton himself participates in the Porsche Supercup of 2025 among other series.

Baldwin, who has also participated in many classics in racing, is impressed by the stability of the Red Bull driver, in any circumstances. “He is quicker than probably everyone else on the grid. I agree. No doubt. Dry, wet, whatever situ, he probably is quicker. But the the gaps to the teammates are nuts,” said the Brit.

Verstappen found extraterrestrial by GT drivers

Albert also concluded that Verstappen is extraterrestrial. “If you look at his background, the way he was raised, he's one of the most ever, like, fine-tuned.

"He's built for it. And even his career, like he got the opportunity super early. He could make mistakes without really worrying about his seat ever being in jeopardy.

"So, he had the crashes and stuff, and he learned the hard way and whatever.

"He's just so like well rounded now, isn't he? Alien” the Canadian concluded.
