IMOLA, Italy, — Max Verstappen celebrated a double win on Sunday, taking the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix for Red Bull after earlier being on the triumphant team for a virtual endurance race.
The triple Formula One world champion said the time spent gaming in between real world duties had not affected his performance.
Mr. Verstappen said he had done some evening stints but not night ones, although he did stay up to watch the Oleksandr Usyk-Tyson Fury world heavyweight title fight which was broadcast at around midnight local time.
“He’s had a very busy weekend because he’s also competed in the 24 Hours of Nuerburgring in between being in the car,” team boss Christian Horner told reporters. — Reuters
