Tune in on Sunday at 11:30am as Max Verstappen heads back to the Nordschleife, continuing his preparations for the Nurburgring 24 Hours in May. This weekend features a double-header of races 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 tragic passing of driver Juha Miettinen, who died after a multi-car incident led to the suspension of Saturday's race. Verstappen was among those paying tribute to the 66-year-old. With the F1 schedule interrupted 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 calendar.
Teaming up with seasoned endurance driver Lucas Auer, nephew of former F1 driver Gerhard Berger, in the Red Bull-liveried Mercedes-AMG GT3 car for Verstappen Racing, he will compete against a strong 37-car GT3 field at the Nurburgring Langstrecken-Serie.
