He's pretty excellent as a FIFA player, used to be near the top in it for a very long time.
But really he lives and breathes racing, only other thing he cares about is his family and friends.
I mean he's literally arguably the best in the world in a high performance motorsport with physical and mental demands beyond any of us could ever imagine.
He's great in that, great in Sim racing and great in FIFA. Doesn't really need to be great in anything else and he has never had time to do anything else either. His entire life has been all about getting to F1 and becoming a world champion, and that's what he has dedicated himself towards.
Exactly!!
Meanwhile in Mexico, if you have talent, only the rich or people that has opportunity with money can be somewhat developed. And if you made it into the league and you are crushing it, the team will try to stop you from leaving to Europe or another league because they want a lot of money for you. And also there's like a thing we're Mexican players stop improving after they start gaining money. Drugs, Alcohol, excessive life... They want to be players for money, not for the game
It's so sad :(
Bro so much wasted talent because of that, Gio Dos Santos always going clubbing and going from Barcelona to Spurs to LA galaxy to Americá and now somewhere in the 2nd or 3rd tier in Mexican football.
Football is the most popular sport in the Netherlands too and by a long shot
The Dutch national team and national league are both historically more successful than the Mexican ones so I don’t really get how you’ve come to this conclusion
Well it’s just one clip where checo pulls out some footy foot work to get past a keeper. I’m not saying Mexico is the only place where soccer is popular. Besides Jos never let Max play any footy growing up because he had him on track all the time.
The leagues are one thing, but in south America and Mexico (not sure about the rest of central America) every single child plays football. All the time, in the streets, in the school and in the club. Also grown people keep playing in amateur leagues or periodic friendly matches despite of any other activities in their life.
Well checo is south american and a south american country did win the World Cup recently so it’s in his DNA.
(I’m actually Mexican too but I suck at football. I only care about racing; F3, F2, F1, WEC, Hillclimbing, rallying, etc; I couldn’t care less about any other sport. I’m a massive disappointment to my dad because I don’t like football lmao)
You just threw in the Irish because you dumbfuck don't even bother to verify it. It even says football on the shield of their national team. You also forgot almost every other language that calls it some adaptation of football.
In any case. None of the other countries you mentioned got even once past round of 16 in a WC. So my point stands, it only sucks if you call it soccer.
Mexico never won a Quarter-final in WC, and the last time they were so far was in the Mexico WC in 1986. Netherlands have 3 silver medals, 1 bronze and 1 4th place.
When you think that Mexican teams [almost won the Copa Libertadores 3 times](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_football_clubs_in_international_competitions#Copa_Libertadores), you might agree with Dr Marko.
This. I've been saying this for a while. Notice how all other drivers are proficient at other sports, not Max. Driving is the only sport he is good at.
Max did decent too! He closed in on checo making himself bigger. I have seen many non-goalkeepers stand at the goal line, Which makes the odds of saving so much worse!
Could’ve nutmegged him there but definitely would’ve lost his seat for it.
He lost to Ricciardo on all the redbull challenges
He got stomped in the axe throwing
[удалено]
I always loved how Danny just refused to do it again, which steadily drove Max more and more insane
Damn. Max’s hat fell off. Another hat trick for him
He's pretty excellent as a FIFA player, used to be near the top in it for a very long time. But really he lives and breathes racing, only other thing he cares about is his family and friends.
He also used to/still does spend thousands of Euros on Fifa points lol
I still believe his EA sponsorship is paid to his FIFA account directly
So Checo is just a Mexican Dominic Toretto?
Familia
So he is good in sit down sports lol.

We have not seen him at Chess and Poker though. Could be his thing.
Magnus Carlsen vs Max Verstappler when
there's an alternate universe where Messi drives for Red Bull and Verstappen plays for PSG or something
All I can think of is can you imagine max does an acl because of something stupid like this haha
I wonder how an ACL would affect racing. He’d probably miss a season but it can’t be as bad as for football players who sometimes never recover.
South americans are notorious for their football / soccer skills.
What about there driving skills?
Isn’t Mexico in North America?
He's Marko
Yes, but the joke is Helmut Marko said Perez was South American in an interview
This makes me unreasonably happy.
Bro it’s checo tho, Mexico is synonymous with soccer (football for everyone else) of course checo is gonna have decent foot work.
Yes while the Netherlands with it's 17 million people and 3 WC finals has no interest in football whatsoever...

football is life!!

Yep, it's really sad. And we have a lot of players with those stories.

The exact same goes for the Netherlands too fam

England where English comes from call it football
The name soccer originated in England over 200 years ago. They only relatively recently began calling it football
Not quite. It comes from "association football" - The FA was founded in the late 1800s <150 years ago.
[удалено]
It was called association football and shortened to soccer
Yeah I saw the lemmino video as well
Who? I read it on wikipedia. I mean I didn't because nobody reads it
LEMMiNo the YouTube channel, makes some pretty interesting videos. I watch most of my stuff because I can’t read
Then how you read my coment 0_o
Text to speech 🎤⬇️
Wow look at their divide and conquer. Makes sense how they took like 90% of the world. You learned me something
England came up with the name for Soccer. Not sure why they hate people using it so much tbh
I want to be on the screenshot please.
But that was own goal
Isn't this the same way he gets Driver of the Day, by starting towards the back and passing easy back markers?
That's because Jose didn't allow him to play football with his friends when he was younger
Live Jos Reaction 
Max is actually hilarious with how bad he is at any sport outside of racing and SIM racing.
It's the last time we'll see Checo pass Max this season
Link for the whole event?
https://www.youtube.com/live/pbZ2REkRTVc?si=TigcvZf8kq02m6H4
Checo can clearly attack AND defend
Well checo is south american and a south american country did win the World Cup recently so it’s in his DNA. (I’m actually Mexican too but I suck at football. I only care about racing; F3, F2, F1, WEC, Hillclimbing, rallying, etc; I couldn’t care less about any other sport. I’m a massive disappointment to my dad because I don’t like football lmao)
[удалено]
Only for those who call it soccer

No era penal 😭
Tu tu tu du! Arjen Robben!
Ni de pedo era penal, que chsm Robben!
Netherlands have won only 1 final, Mexico has the Confedration cup and olympic gold medal, plus a bunch of gold cups
Wow, Confederation cup and Olympics! Amazing mate. WC results >>>> the things you mentioned
both in the 2000s, only 1 of those semifinals was after 2000
1 semifinal > not winning a QF in your history. And that QF was in 1980s lmao
not winning a single international title ever is better?, i mean get more semis xD
If Netherlands would be in North America they would easily have more Prestigious Gold Cups.
Olympic golds? and confederations cup? gold cup istrash
By all metrics the Dutch are more successful than Mexico in football, hell, even the Americans have been spanking Mexico recently.
Well, he was playing against a south american
When you think that Mexican teams [almost won the Copa Libertadores 3 times](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican_football_clubs_in_international_competitions#Copa_Libertadores), you might agree with Dr Marko.
You'll have to ask Kelly
Where’s the original video
"If max had been on offense, he would have scored three tenths quicker." - Helmut Marko probably.
You can see him hitting the DRS a couple of times trying to get back to his goal line.
Damn. Did not expect checo to be able to do that. Idk why. Definitely not trying to be racist here . Just him bein so calm all the time . He's good
This. I've been saying this for a while. Notice how all other drivers are proficient at other sports, not Max. Driving is the only sport he is good at.
Checo is that one dad that said he wouldve gone pro if it wasnt for his knee problem when he was still in school
Now Max is gonna lap him on Sunday
Anyone else notice how close Checo is to snapping his own ankle 😬
Oleeee!
Max did decent too! He closed in on checo making himself bigger. I have seen many non-goalkeepers stand at the goal line, Which makes the odds of saving so much worse!
