Max Verstappen completes ‘secret test’ under a fake name as Red Bull ace goes undercover
Max Verstappen used his break from F1 ahead of the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix to drive a Ferrari 296 GT3 car at the legendary Nurburgring Nordschleife circuit. The Dutchman drove the car under the pseudonym ‘Franz Hermann’ in a bid to evade attention at the track. The Dutchman has a vested interest in the GT3 category. He has a team, namely Verstappen.com Racing, entered in the GT World Challenge Europe series, with Thierry Vermeulen, Chris Lulham and Harry King piloting the Aston Martin Vantage AMR machine.
Ahead of the F1 race in Imola, Verstappen enjoyed a stint behind the wheel. This latest outing came at the Nordschleife circuit ahead of the third round of the Nurburgring Langstrecken-Serie (NLS), with the four-time world champion piloting his own Ferrari 296 GT3 machine, decked out in a Verstappen.com Racing livery.
