Jokes are starting to go around about how Max Verstappen is the new Pastor Maldonado, but nobody could crash a car the way Pastor could. He's been lifted to a cult-hero status among F1-fans because of his many, many retirements in his time in the F1 due to spins, crashes or collisions. Maldonado won his only race in Spain in 2012 and that's the next race on the calendar, so that's a good excuse to look back again at some of his best crashes! Thanks to YouTuber Race Videos.
