The convex hull of several i.i.d. beta distributed random vectors in ℝd is called the random beta polytope. Recently, the expected values of their intrinsic volumes, number of faces, normal and tangent angles and other quantities have been calculated, explicitly and asymptotically. In the present paper, we aim to investigate the asymptotic behavior of the beta polytopes with extremal intrinsic volumes. We suggest a conjecture and solve it in dimension two. To this end, we obtain some general limit relation for a wide class of U-max statistics whose kernels include the perimeter and the area of the convex hull of the arguments.
