Tune in on Sunday at 11:30am to watch Max Verstappen compete at the Nordschleife as he prepares for the Nurburgring 24 Hours in May, part of a double-header weekend in the German track's endurance series. A minute of silence will be observed before the start of Sunday's second four-hour race, following the passing of driver Juha Miettinen, who died after a multi-car accident led to the suspension of Saturday's race. Verstappen paid tribute to the 66-year-old driver.
With the F1 season on hold in April due to the cancellation of the Bahrain and Saudi Arabian Grands Prix, Verstappen has added the NLS4 and NLS5 races to his expanding GT3 schedule. Teaming up with experienced endurance driver Lucas Auer, nephew of former F1 driver Gerhard Berger, Verstappen will drive the Red Bull-livered Mercedes-AMG GT3 car for Verstappen Racing in a field of 37 GT3 cars at the Nurburgring Langstrecken-Serie.
