However, the decisive moment took place in Qatar, where the Red Bull driver secured his third consecutive championship. Apart from the captivating question that grabbed fans’ interest, Coulthard’s clever caption, stating, “Spotify Wrapped was a bit too precise this year,” also added an element of intrigue.

Aside from questions about Max Verstappen what else drew David Coulthard’s attention?
Beyond inquiries about Max Verstappen, David Coulthard’s attention was also captivated by a notable musical choice. The ex-Red Bull driver featured Leclerc’s debut single, “AUS23 (1:1),” a four-minute classical masterpiece released in April.
This composition that showcased the Monegasque’s piano prowess gained global acclaim. Notably, ESPN reported that Leclerc’s musical venture even secured a place in the Top 10 of the Worldwide iTunes song chart following its release.
However, Coulthard’s compilation of top songs also highlighted the vibrant track “Super Max.” This piece, introduced by ardent Max Verstappen supporters, was released in July 2016. Since then, the Dutch sensation has transformed into an inspiring figure for millions showcasing exceptional dominance.
Aside from looking up Verstappen’s title permutations and his song, the 13-time F1 winner has other searches on his Wrapped. It included the Valtteri Bottas calendar (which was launched a couple of weeks ago). Coulthard also searched about “How to make my podcast more popular?”, referring to his Formula for Success podcast.
David Coulthard stands out as one of Verstappen’s most prominent supporters. The Scottish driver heightened his appreciation by comparing Verstappen’s dominance to the iconic periods of Ayrton Senna, Michael Schumacher, and Lewis Hamilton’s era. He said, “Flawless at the moment, very few mistakes. I think we’re witnessing the sort of moments that we saw during Senna’s time or Schumacher’s time or Lewis’s dominance.”
