Max Verstappen has made his appearance in a video by
Honda. The Dutchman promotes the new
Honda Civic TYPE R.
Role for Verstappen
Although Honda as a name will be gone from F1 in 2022, the brand is still involved with
Red Bull Racing and AlphaTauri. Red Bull Powertrains is now the name on the engine, but the model is still owned by Honda and the rights remain with the Japanese manufacturer. From 2023 Honda will also be more prominently present on the car of
Max Verstappen and
Sergio Perez.
Honda has taken advantage of this collaboration to promote a new car. In a video called 'the ultimate detour', Verstappen takes a nice drive in the Civic TYPE R. Of course he arrives exactly in time and even decides to drive a bit further in the car.
