Max Verstappen showed his best side last week. The multiple world champion sent a surprise video to Harry Sinclair, a young fan who recently overcame leukaemia.

In his message to the young fan, Verstappen said: "Hi Harry, Max Verstappen here. I’ve heard your story and also how hard you and your sister have worked to raise money for the charity that helped you. I think you’re amazing, and I also hear you’re a huge racing fan and an aspiring F1 driver, so thank you very much for all the support and I hope to see you in an F1 car very soon.”

During the three-year battle with cancer, Harry and his family received help from It's Good 2 Give. Harry and his family now dedicate themselves to this charity as a sign of thanks. It is something that also impressed Verstappen.
