Last night, the winner of the women’s Ballon d’Or was announced. Interestingly, there is a connection to Formula 1, a sport that may seem unrelated to football.
Details: The last four Ballon d’Or Féminin titles have been awarded to Spanish Barcelona players: Alexia Putellas and Aitana Bonmatí. Aitana has just won this prestigious award for the 2024-2025 season.
In a notable coincidence, Verstappen has secured victory in the last four Formula 1 seasons. He recently won the last two Grands Prix despite facing stiff competition from McLaren, making this comparison even more interesting.
Reminder: In the drivers’ championship, Verstappen is currently in third place, 79 points behind leader Oscar Piastri of McLaren. Piastri’s teammate, Lando Norris, holds second place, leading Verstappen by 44 points.
