Alain Prost confided to us that his last year in F1, in 1993, was a very tense one, when he was favorite for the title with the best car in the field. Now, for your fourth title, you find yourself in a similar situation. How do you see this season? I don’t ask myself that question. If I don’t win, I look for the reason why. Is it my fault? Then I’ll correct the mistake. It’s not my fault, so I’m going to help the team improve our performance. You can never win it all. Is that why your duel with Lewis Hamilton in 2021 will surely go down as one of the greatest seasons in Formula 1 history? I know you’re not going to agree with me (he smiles). But, in my eyes, the best was last year. People only saw a one-way domination, but you don’t measure the degree of involvement of each member of the team to achieve this hallucinating result (21 wins out of a possible 22 for Red Bull, 19 for Verstappen). It’s something I’m very proud of. It must have seemed boring to some people, but I don’t care (his hands make a helpless gesture). I’m here to judge my performance and that of the team. And 2023 was the best season ever. The 2021 season doesn’t even come close.”
