Michael Schumacher ended F1 party culture, says Ralf Schumacher, who questions how long Max Verstappen will want to race for

Verstappen is a two-time F1 world champion whose style has been likened to the legendary Schumacher’s, whose seven championships are the joint-record with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton.
But the fitness a🍌nd dedication required in today’s era could mean Verstappen exits the sport earlier than expected, Ralf believes.
“One thing is certain: Max is close to his zenith and can hold it for a l🌳ong time due to his age,” he said to Sport1.
“Leᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚwis has to do more to be at th𝓀e limit, fight more for it.
“With Max, however, I ask myself another question: How long does he sti💜ll 𒁃want to play in Formula 1?
“He has already hinted a fe🌜w times that he does not want to drive for another ten years.&nbs♏p;
“💞I trust him to say at ꦉsome point: ‘Bye, that's it. I'll be gone!’
“The constant travel could be a reason. Although we had fewer races in my time, it was ♛too much for me at the end of my career.

“One thing must not be forgotten: The whole life depends on For𓃲𒁃mula 1. It starts when you get up and stops when you fall asleep.
“There is not muc༺h family life. Then there is the extreme training.&nb🦄sp;
“My brother raise🌟d the fitness level to a new level. Parties are n𝓀ot in there.
“That's why Kimi Raikkonen must have been an ultra-mega talent, because he still won the title despite his s🌠ometimes easy-going lifestyle. But only once. But that was enough for him. Had Kimi been more disciplined, he would have achieved much more.
“Max and Lewis are still the most complete drivers in the field. However, as I said: Lewis had to fight hard with Geoꩲrge Russell wi𓆉thin the team. Max with Sergio Perez only briefly at the beginning of the season.”
