Verstappen's nephews test karting skills: the Dutchman reacts

Luka and Lio drove in special suits and helmets they got from their uncle, Max Verstappen.

Footage of Victoria's sons went viral on social media. It was pointed out to Verstappen that it looked a bit like his nephews were starting to kart in the same way as he did.

The four-time world champion responded with a chuckle: "I hope not. We'll see if they enjoy it and how it proceeds. But they're three and four years old, so it's all very relaxed."

Verstappen himself started karting at a young age, and rose up the ranks to claim four F1 world titles.

Would Verstappen recommend letting small children start a career? Similarly to when asked about his daughter, Lily, he would rather not like see that happening.
