"Of course he was in F1 while I was there but I never really ahd a fight with him because he's always been at the back beause of the issues they had."

"That's one thing I regret. I've been racing aginst Seb and Lewis already and that's been nice but never with Fernando. Back in the day when I was watching TV he was always the one really fighting them as well." 

"It's nice that I've raced with him but I never got to fight him which is a shame." 

Verstappen finished this championship in 4th and will be looking to fight with more of the best drivers next season and push for a world championship.
