Max Verstappen regrets not having raced Alonso

Max Verstappen, 21, who grew up watching Fernando Alonso take on legends like Michael Schumacher, says he regrets not being able to take on Fernando Alonso in Formula 1. "It's a shame that I have never been able to face him," the Red Bull driver told France's Auto Hebdo. "Yes, he was in F1 when I got there, but I was never able to fight with him because he was at the back of the pack because of the problems they (McLaren) had," Verstappen said. "That is something I may regret. I raced Seb, I raced Lewis and it was a great experience, but I never raced Fernando. And it had always been him who was fighting against the others when I watched the races on TV," Verstappen added.
