Max Verstappen is only 24 years old, but he has already reached the top-ten in an illustrious list. The Red Bull Racing driver has already finished on the podium 63 times in his early career, moving clear of David Coulthard (62 podiums). It is likely that Verstappen will move up to eighth place this season.

The drivers who are currently still active and are also in the top-ten are Sebastian Vettel (third), Fernando Alonso (sixth) and Valtteri Bottas (ninth).
