Max Verstappen is a Formula One driver for Red Bull. There's not much debate that he was likely conceived, born, and raised in a race car. Born in September 30, 1997 to his dad Jos Verstappen and his mom Sophie Kumpen (both of whom were race drivers themselves), racing is quite literally in Max Verstappen's DNA.
Involved in racing for most of his life, it was in 2015 that Max became the youngest driver to ever race in F1. He was 17 years old. Do you know what most people were doing when they were 17? While they might have been slappen something, it's safe to say they weren't slappen laps in F1 like Max.
Did you know?
When he was but a child, Max was once left alone at a gas station by his dad as punishment for a having a bad race. Some might call that cruel, others call it cracking a few emotional eggs to make a Formula One super omelette!
