It seems that Max Verstappen missed out on his chance to step forward on an end-of-season tradition.
On the track, the 20 F1 drivers are fierce rivals, but off it, they have a good relationship and often go for a traditional dinner before the final race in Abu Dhabi. This dinner leads to a pricey bill, prompting the question of who should foot the bill. Despite being expected to pay, four-time F1 champion Verstappen did not, and his former teammate, Pierre Gasly, ended up covering the cost. Verstappen later explained that he was not aware of the bill being settled as he was seated far from the payment area. The incident led to a humorous misunderstanding among the drivers.
