Max Verstappen declared still in the F1 title fight: 'Nothing is impossible'

Max Verstappen remains optimistic about his chances in the F1 drivers' championship, despite being 110 points behind leader Kimi Antonelli. Naomi Schiff, a former racing driver and current pundit, highlighted Verstappen's previous season comeback from a similar deficit as evidence that he can still compete for the title. Red Bull has shown improvement with the RB22, and Verstappen has secured three podium finishes in recent races, underscoring his potential to close the gap in the standings.

Verstappen's commitment to Red Bull is solidified with a contract extension until 2030, alleviating any concerns about his future with the team. Schiff emphasized that for Verstappen, performance is paramount, and he aims to be in contention for more world titles. With a strong finish in the last race before the summer break, Verstappen and Red Bull are looking to build momentum as the season progresses.
