Max Verstappen compared to Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna amid reputation warning

Max Verstappen has been urged to avoid earning a reputation for dirty driving like Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna.

Aged 24, Verstappen is already a world champion but not everyone was pleased with how he fought the 2021 title battle. On many occasions he was accused of being too aggressive while racing against Lewis Hamilton, especially in the latter half of the campaign.

Ex-racer and experienced pundit Martin Brundle believes the Dutchman has matured this season and praised him for his "fair and professional" driving. He wants to see the Red Bull star continue to race cleanly, to avoid cementing a reputation as a nasty piece of work on the track.
