Classic F1, the Indy oval and Seb Vettel: 10 Questions to a Racing Driver with Max Marzorati


by Alex Johnston

In the new feature of ‘10 Questions’, Max Marzorati is the latest driver to, answer the racing questions after last weeks feature with Alex Dunne.

Max is currently competing in the GB4 championship with the Hillspeed team and currently sits second in the standings having taken 6 podiums from the 12 races so far in the season, and never finishing lower than sixth. Very impressive from the 21 year old.


Away from racing, Max enjoys…*checks notes*, watching racing. The young driver enjoys watching old F1 races. He idolises Ferrari legend Gilles Villeneuve, and enjoys watching footage of other F1 greats such as James Hunt, Ayrton Senna and Juan Manuel Fangio.

Max is also coached by BTCC star Ash Sutton.


The Brit is also a keen piano player as well as being able to play clarinet and guitar, as well as do jiujitsu.


Without any further hold up, here is Max’s answers!

1. Hairpins or chicanes? Fast chicanes.


2. Long straights or slow corners? Slow corners; straights are for cars, corners are for drivers 😉


3. Understeer or oversteer? Oversteer, everyone likes a drift haha!


4. Fast circuits or technical circuit? Fast circuits all the way.


5. Wet races or wet/dry races? Wet/dry as it keeps it unpredictable.


6. Whats’s your favoutite circuit you’ve raced? Spa - magical place.

7. Favourite you’ve NOT raced? Monza or Indianapolis oval variation!

8. Your favourite F1 livery ever? The cleanness of the John Player Special Lotus is really something but I do also love the '76 Ferrari. The blood red is just so iconic, everyone knows what the red cars are!

9. Your favourite helmet design ever? Helmet designs are never something that has really interested me as I've never had the money to paint my helmet myself...However Vettel’s gold helmet was truly something!

📸 “Du bist! Weltmeister!” Vettel became known for special helmets as he became world champion.


10. Who is the best driver you’ve raced against? Joey Foster, always clean, always aggressive, just look at his history and who he has raced and beaten, he is an incredible racer!


I really enjoyed talking with Max and I hope I can chat with him again, and maybe talk more about old F1, it’s very refreshing to see a young driver keen on watching classic F1!

A huge thanks to Max for taking the time to talk to me!
