Max Verstappen reveals what really makes him nervous
Four-time F1 champion Max Verstappen revealed that watching his friend Chris Lulham race makes him more nervous than being in the car himself.

Despite this, Verstappen secured eight grand prix victories that year and even triumphed in his GT3 debut at Nurburgring Nordschleife. Beyond F1, Verstappen has racing interests in sim racing and owns the GT Racing team Verstappen.com Racing, which succeeded in the GT World Challenge Europe Gold Cup with drivers like Chris Lulham. Verstappen has expressed aspirations for his team to compete at the pro car level in the future, showcasing his dedication to expanding and improving his racing endeavors. Considering his serious approach to racing, the possibility of Verstappen transitioning to an F1 team principal role remains intriguing.
