Max Verstappen managed to claim pole position for the Miami Grand Prix. The internet was impressed by the Dutchman's performance days after he became a father.
Saturday did not begin the best way for Verstappen. During the Sprint, the Dutchman received a ten-second time penalty after he made contact with Kimi Antonelli in the pit lane, due to an unsafe release by the Red Bull pit crew. As a result, he also missed out on scoring points.
Then in Qualifying, Verstappen was in fine form, and took pole position after his time was marginally quicker than the ones set by Lando Norris and Antonelli.
The internet was also in awe of the driver after the session, which was his first one as a father.
