Max's family affair

But world champion won't cross nan!

- NEIL MOXLEY

MAX VERSTAPPEN may have it all – but he still can not escape a ticking-off from his nan.

With an estimated worth of £50 million, a growing property portfolio, multi-million dollar contract with Red Bull, the 25-year-old is living his best life.

But if the champ-in-waiting believes he can get away with questioning his grandmother’s driving skills, he can think again.

Verstappen is jetting his mum Sophie, dad Jos, auntie Gerda and nan Marianne to Japan in the hope of seeing him land another world crown.

In fact, Marianne was flown to Singapore in his private jet so she could be with him on the morning of his 25th birthday.

The 72-year-old is no stranger to the F1 scene. She was present in Brazil, back in 1994, when Verstappen’s dad Jos made his debut in the sport.

She said: “I’ve enjoyed a lot of great races and weekends in Formula One over the years. But what Max is doing is so special.
