Several Formula 1 drivers watched Max Verstappen's exploits on the Nordschleife with great interest. The four-time world champion used an F1-free weekend between Miami and Montreal to tick off one of the endurance races that had long been at the top of his list, driving a Mercedes-AMG GT3.
Victory ultimately slipped away due to a driveshaft issue, but Verstappen’s performance still earned him widespread praise from both the GT3 world and colleagues in the F1 paddock.
