Max Verstappen is considered by many to have been the best driver on the grid this season but the man himself has insisted it doesn't matter about what people think, he's just focusing on his own performances.
In the opening half of the season, Verstappen won two races, the Austrian and German Grand Prix as well as claiming his maiden pole position at the Hungaroring. These impressive results have led many to believe the Dutchman is the best driver on the grid.
However, the Red Bull driver has shrugged off these opinions by saying he can only focus on himself and his good showings have just been a continuation of last year.
"Well, it doesn't matter if I agree," Verstappen told BBC Sport.
"Everybody has their own opinion. I just have to look at myself and if I was happy with myself I can say to myself I am happy about it.

"Yes, but also basically last year after the first six races I have been on a good level as well. For me, it is just a continuation of what I was doing last year."
