Max Verstappen has been backed this week by former world champions Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel after it was suggested that his new title of world champion might hinder his career. This week, Vettel said: "What I remember - I think it's a boost, it takes a lot of weight, in a way, off your shoulders. But it's a great feeling to start the season as world champion. "You have the number one on your car, so it's a privilege. I think we would all like to be in that position. It can only be one of us, and yes, I didn't see it as an extra burden. "If anything, it was a boost. So, I think he will probably feel the same. But then, everybody is different."
