Max Verstappen caused the crowd in
Austria to burst into laughter with a remark to George Russell. The Mercedes driver would be 'very beautiful' according to
Verstappen.
Before the third and final free practice in Austria, Max Verstappen and Yuki Tsunoda made an appearance on the F1 fan stage. The Dutchman and the Japanese both received paper cut out of faces for each to wear and had to guess who's face they were wearing.
Verstappen flirts with Russell
Max Verstappen was the first to go and asked whether he
was ugly or beautiful. Tsunoda responded by saying that Verstappen, or at
least the person whose mask he was wearing, was beautiful.
Verstappen then repeated: ‘’I am very beautiful?’’ After confirmation from Yuki, Max was sure: ‘’George Russell.’’
Verstappen's statement caused a huge laugh
among the audience. It was actually not George Russell, but Brad Pitt on Verstappen's
mask. The Dutchman eventually guessed it right by asking whether it was a driver. When Tsunoda said he had become a driver recently, Verstappen knew the right answer.
