Christian Horner won €500 off Helmut Marko after Max Verstappen secured pole position at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix qualifying. Helmut Marko had bet Christian Horner that Verstappen would not earn a front-row starting position. However, Verstappen exceeded expectations and claimed his fourth consecutive pole in Abu Dhabi, narrowly beating Charles Leclerc. On the cool down lap, Horner congratulated Verstappen over the radio and revealed that he had won the bet, much to Verstappen’s surprise. Marko, although losing the bet, graciously mentioned that the money would be used to treat the team mechanics to a nice evening at the bar on Sunday night.
