What Verstappen's amazing Nurburgring GT victory says about him - and his future

On this episode, we discuss how Max Verstappen has spent the gap between F1 races, and in particular the significance of his first GT3 race victory on the daunting Nurburgring Nordschleife (of all places).


Edd Straw is joined by Scott Mitchell-Malm and Matt Beer to explain why Max did it and the lengths he went to in order to compete, and what it means for his racing future in F1 and beyond.


That includes the likelihood of him contesting the Nurburgring 24 Hours next year, and his long-term aspiration to race at - and win - the Le Mans 24 hours.


There’s also a look a why he’s in a unique position to do this, and if some of his rivals could be inspired to do the same.
