AlphaTauri boss says Max Verstappen instantly reminded him of Michael Schumacher
AlphaTauri team principal Franz Tost has been a mentor to some of F1’s greatest drivers of recent times, including reigning world champion Max Verstappen. The Austrian recently revealed that in his first stint, Verstappen reminded him of seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher.
