Formula One leader Max Verstappen returns home to his Orange Army of fans at the Dutch Grand Prix this weekend, with another world title approaching ominously and a different award already in hand.
The 24-year-old Dutchman was surprised to be appointed an officer in the Order of Orange-Nassau — a highly-ranked merit from the Dutch royal family.
“It was something really special, also for the whole family, a really nice moment," Verstappen said Thursday. “You don’t expect things like this to ever happen to you."
