Max Verstappen had a very special supporter cheering him on during the Spanish Grand Prix. His grandmother was visiting Red Bull Racing and was ready to be the first to congratulate her grandson after his victory.

There may have been boos to Verstappen, but the Dutchman was not short of anything in terms of support. Not only do many Verstappen fans travel to the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya every year, but this time Grandma Verstappen was also there to cheer on her grandson.

After his victory, which he had to work hard for because he was constantly pressured by Lando Norris (and, as a result, also by his race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase), his grandmother was on hand along with the Red Bull team to congratulate Max on his 61st Formula 1 victory.
