Max Verstappen s'apprête à participer au Grand Prix du Canada ce week-end après avoir piloté une Mercedes-AMG GT3 lors des 24 Heures du Nürburgring, où une rupture d'arbre de transmission en fin d'épreuve a mis fin à une belle performance pour l'équipe Verstappen.com Racing.

Verstappen, 28 ans, a partagé la Mercedes-AMG GT3 n°3 avec Daniel Juncadella, Jules Gounon et Lucas Auer sur la Nordschleife dans le cadre de son programme au Nürburgring pour 2026. La voiture a mené une grande partie de la course avant que la défaillance ne survienne à trois heures de l'arrivée. Verstappen a décrit l'expérience comme plaisante malgré le résultat et a confirmé son intérêt pour de futures courses d'endurance si son emploi du temps le permet.
