Manchester City had a massive defeat against Arsenal 5-1 and Haaland is the only goal scorer of the match for the team. With that goal, the Norwegian player had completed 250 club goals. On the other side, Max Verstappen is moving towards his goal of winning his 5th Formula 1 championship.

Max Verstappen has won the Formula 1 championship for the last four seasons and Manchester City also won the English Premier League for the last four consecutive years. If they win this 2025 season, it would be the fifth time for both.

'Stay Humble meets Simply Lovely'

Both the champions have a winning mentality and are leaders in their respective fields. Fans of Football and Formula 1 are surprised by this, as nobody thought Max Verstappen would take pictures alongside Erling Haaland

Red Bull and Max Verstappen started their dominance in Formula 1 in 2021, the same year Manchester City's dominance started in football. But in Formula 1, this season is going to be the toughest year for Red Bull, as their rivals like McLaren, Mercedes, and Ferrari have grown stronger over the years and they could challenge with a competitive car. 

If Max Verstappen wins the championship this year, he will be the first F1 driver after Michael Schumacher to win the title for five consecutive years. Max has already sealed his spot with the F1 legends like Schumacher, Hamilton, Fangio, Vettel, Prost and Senna. Max is the fastest man in Formula 1, and so is Erling Haaland in football. He became the fastest man to achieve 250 goals, surpassing legends like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
