Verstappen engaged in sim race late into night before Hungarian Grand Prix

Max Verstappen starts the Hungarian Grand Prix at 2pm on Sunday afternoon. You would say, resting is pretty important for Formula 1 drivers. However, the Dutchman opted for a hefty stint in a Team Redline sim race. For no less than three hours, the reigning Formula 1 world champion sat behind the wheel during the sim race at Spa-Francorchamps.

Of course, we know Verstappen as a racing enthusiast, who has no problem giving up the night hours to get behind the wheel again. After three hours, the Red Bull driver thought it was enough. At 03.20 last night, Verstappen passed the wheel to Diego Pinto, who continued in the iRacing 24 hours of Spa race.
