Echoes of Champions League semi-finals: "Formula-1" star left astonished

„Red Bull“ pilot Max Verstappen doubts that the scenario of the „Champions League“ could ever be repeated in „Formula 1“, writes f-1.lt.

The Dutchman admitted following the „Champions League“ semi-finals, in which the teams of „Tottenham Hotspur“ and „Liverpool“ managed to overcome their opponents after trailing by three goals and reach the final.

„At that time, I was having dinner and following the events on my phone. The last seconds between „Ajax“ and „Tottenham“ were dramatic. I didn't watch the other matches because I was flying at that time, but when I landed, I found out the result,“

„I am a PSV fan, but I wanted „Ajax“ to win. But unlike some of my friends, I didn't cry. Several friends were very disappointed. One of them, when I wrote 'Unlucky', replied to me only after an hour. I wasn't that disappointed. But it would have been nice to see „Ajax“ in the final,“

„Could something similar happen in „Formula 1“? I don't think so. A driver would have to be three laps behind and then suddenly win the race. It's just a different sport, where different things happen. One race can determine who will become the champion. It's different here, we participate in 21 races,“
