While sim racing at Silverstone during the second day of the Real Racers Never Quit championship, Max Verstappen saw a corner that looked very familiar to him. In 2021, Verstappen went through Copse Corner with Lewis Hamilton, but the Dutchman and Hamilton touched. This spun Verstappen into the wall at high speed.

The Red Bull driver hasn't forgotten the crash, but Verstappen can laugh about it in his recent stream. "So it does work. Going side-by-side through that corner," he joked in the interview after the race, which was broadcast on Twitch. The day was successful for Verstappen, as he finished first at Silverstone and Mugello. Watch Verstappen's joke about Copse Corner below.
