The British pilot promptly opened the champagne and destroyed the prize worth 40,000 euros
Max Verstappen (Red Bull) further strengthened its leadership this Sunday by winning the Hungarian Grand Prix. Together with him, his teammate Checo Pérez and the Briton Lando Norris (McLaren). However, at the moment of celebration, the protagonist was not the Dutchman, who scored his ninth consecutive victory of the season on the track in the suburbs of Budapest, but Lando Norris.
The Briton was so euphoric on the podium that when he opened the champagne, ended by breaking the trophy Verstappen, handiwork of the organizers and estimated at 40,000 euros.

The trophy broke, and the two-time world champion instantly laughed and had no choice but to pick up piece by piece and take it to your team’s “box”. “It was not entirely my responsibility, because Max put it too close to the edge“, Carlos Sainz’s ex-partner assured shortly after the unfortunate event.
