Even outside the Formula 1 circuit, misfortune continues to plague Max Verstappen. The Red Bull driver, already frustrated with the new F1 regulations and a challenging start to his season, sought an outlet in GT3 racing in Germany. He showcased his formidable talent by securing both pole position and a dominant victory. However, his triumph was short-lived. His team was later disqualified from the final standings due to a technical infringement involving the number of tires used – a bitter blow that underscores a period of persistent bad luck for the Dutch star.
