Verstappen gets Christmas presents from Red Bull: 'Nobody stops me!'
To get into the Christmas spirit, Red Bull Racing has made a video featuring Max Verstappen, in which the 2024 Formula 1 world champion opens Christmas presents.
The Singapore Christmas takes the cake
To finish Verstappen's F1 season in style, Red Bull has made a video of the four time world champion opening Christmas gifts which all have a track name on the packaging, referencing an action or statement made by Verstappen. A fun example is the gift labeled 'Brazil', which turned out to be an umbrella. In Interlagos Verstappen started the race from P17 and clawed his way back to the front, and eventually won the race in style, setting 17 fastest laps from the post red flag restart, all the way to the chequered flag.
The 'Singapore' present was fitting. During the race weekend in the Asian city-state, the four time world champion made the news after he used the word '"fucked," which earned him a community service penalty issued by the FIA, which Verstappen fulfilled in Rwanda. Red Bull saw the fun in the whole thing and gave its driver a curse jar.
