Formula 1‘s leading man Max Verstappen is at the center of some legal drama after his mate posted a video of him zooming through the streets of Monaco in a super expensive car waaaaaay above the speed limit.
The 20-second video, which was posted by his friend Mark Cox, showed Verstappen at the wheel of a luxury Aston Martin Valkyrie as he exceeded the 90km per hour speed limit on the Nice Nord motorway just outside of Monte Carlo, Monaco. While he’s zoom-zooming along, steering with one hand, he’s also fiddling with the controls with the other.
I know he’s breaking the law but I wish I could have a teeny-tiny pinch of that confidence. I get nervous winding down the window in my ’98 Camry while going 60km per hour.
In the video, Verstappen clearly reaches speeds up to 124km per hour. While these speeds may feel juvenile for the two-time World Champion driver, who is used to going 360km per hour in the F1, they are very clearly against the law on the public motorway.
