Max Verstappen played a crucial role in Team Redline’s victory in iRacing’s virtual Daytona 24 Hours. Despite facing a disconnection issue, Verstappen, along with teammates Steinbraten and Vecchio, put in an impressive performance, with Verstappen completing four stints during the night. Team boss Atze Kerkhof praised Verstappen’s efforts and described the race as flawless. However, the team’s GTP class could not replicate the success due to an iRacing error that resulted in longer pit-stops for their BMW hypercars. Kerkhof expressed frustration at the missed opportunity but acknowledged that sometimes, things don’t go as planned.
