Max Verstappen attratto dalle corse GT3 per la centralità del pilota

Max Verstappen si sta avvicinando alle corse GT3 perché, secondo l'architetto della serie Stephane Ratel, permettono ai piloti di fare la differenza all'interno di uno schieramento equilibrato. Il campione di Formula 1 pianifica un programma più ampio per il 2026 che include il suo debutto alla 24 Ore del Nürburgring alla fine di questo mese.

Verstappen ha incrementato i suoi impegni nel GT3 dopo aver provato la categoria sulla Nordschleife l'anno scorso. Ha vinto alla sua prima uscita nel GT3 su quel circuito e ora guida una Mercedes-AMG GT3 iscritta dal team Winward sotto l'insegna Verstappen Racing in diversi round dell'NLS. Al di fuori dei fine settimana di Gran Premio, continua con sessioni di test privati e recentemente ha provato una Nissan Z GT500 al Fuji Speedway per un evento promozionale della Red Bull.
