Max Verstappen and Gianpiero Lambiase: ‘He’s like my little brother’
Max Verstappen and Gianpiero Lambiase have become the driver/race engineer partners to beat in F1, with the pair having worked together to capture the last three consecutive drivers’ championships. But it was not always like this between the two, as they have recently revealed.
Max Verstappen and Gianpiero Lambiase: Over the past few years, F1 fans have become used to hearing opposing banter between the deadpan Lambiase and his sometimes fiery Dutch charge. But although the exchanges between the pair may not have seemed overly friendly at times, a difficult period between Verstappen and Lambeaus a few years ago, followed by Verstappen’s first title win, ensured that a brotherly bond developed between them. Yes, as he told Red Bull Talking. Bull Podcast.
“We know each other inside out and we know what triggers the other, or maybe how to persuade the other or how to put a hand on his or her shoulder,” Lambias said. “I think we know how to get ourselves out of a difficult situation and also enjoy better circumstances.

Max Verstappen and Gianpiero Lambiase: “But I think, probably up to three years ago, I think maybe ’18, ’19, ’20 when the car was not as competitive as we, the team, would have liked, but I think Especially Max [would have liked] – because at that time, you could already see his frustration that he wasn’t able to compete for a championship at that time – and we had some ups and downs, I think in that period. I would say, mid third, fourth, fifth year.
“But I think 2021 was so intense, I think…the relationships and bonds were strengthened that year, and then last year and this year is just a continuation of that. And yes, I look at him as my younger brother.”
