13 April 2023

Max Verstappen left his Team Redline sim racing teammates laughing after a pre-race blunder caught on a live stream on Wednesday. The two-time F1 World Champion and current Championship leader has been vocal in his support for sim racing in recent years and often streams with Team Redline, including in more serious, official endurance races such as the Le Mans 24 Hours Virtual and the Virtual 12 Hours of Sebring. Whilst issues in both events have left Verstappen irate in the past 12 months, the Dutchman's latest misfortune left teammates Enzo Bonito and Gianni Vecchio laughing as he unplugged his monitor just moments before the beginning of a race. Can you spot the F1-related 'furniture' Verstappen has to navigate to solve the issue? Check out the video below!
