Max Verstappen conquers Nürburgring: why his rule-abiding attitude is shocking the racing world

Max Verstappen Shatters Expectations: ‘Rules Are Rules, and I Need to Do It’

In an electrifying display of driving prowess, Max Verstappen has once again proven his mettle on one of the most challenging tracks in motorsport history—the Nürburgring Nordschleife. The Formula 1 superstar, known for his fearless racing style and unparalleled skill, has not only dazzled fans but has also made headlines as he navigates the complexities of racing regulations in 2025.

Under the pseudonym Franz Hermann, Verstappen set tongues wagging as he blazed through the notorious Nordschleife, leaving seasoned racing aficionados in awe of his performance. Misha Charoudin, a respected figure in the motorsport community, was among the first to highlight Verstappen’s astonishing achievement, sharing on social media that the four-time world champion had clocked an unofficial track record while racing with a full tank of fuel and amidst heavy traffic. “Shows up. Drives a track record with a full tank AND traffic. Refuses to enter anything. Leaves,” Charoudin tweeted, encapsulating the magnetism of Verstappen’s talent.

In a surprising twist, Verstappen returned to the Nordschleife shortly thereafter to acquire his driver’s license for competing in the NLS races and the renowned 24 Hours of Nürburgring. However, he did so in a Porsche Cayman GT4, a vehicle significantly less powerful than his usual racing machines. While many expressed outrage or disbelief at this move, Verstappen himself remained unfazed.

“He didn’t make a big deal out of it,” Charoudin noted in a recent episode of the Road to Success podcast, emphasizing Verstappen’s humility and adherence to the rules. “He didn’t say, ‘Do you know who I am? I don’t need to drive a slow car.’ He openly acknowledged, ‘Rules are rules, and everyone needs to do it.’ This is crucial for any driver, especially someone of his caliber.”

What makes this story even more compelling is Verstappen’s commitment to understanding the intricacies of racing dynamics. By driving a slower Cayman, he gained invaluable insight into the speed differentials he will face when back in a high-performance GT3 car. Charoudin elaborated, “When he’s driving a GT3 car next time, he will know that the car ahead might not see him, because when he looked in the mirror, it wasn’t there, and then he went for the corner, and suddenly, the car was there.”

This level of awareness is essential for any elite driver, and Verstappen’s willingness to engage with the slower traffic exemplifies his dedication to mastering the sport. “It’s important, and it was cool that he said, ‘Rules are rules, and I need to do it,'” Charoudin added, reinforcing the notion that even the best must respect the protocols that govern their sport.

In a year marked by intense competition and nail-biting drama, Verstappen continues to stand out as a beacon of excellence in the racing world. His latest exploits not only solidify his status as a formidable force on the track but also as a role model for aspiring drivers everywhere. As the 2025 racing season unfolds, fans and competitors alike will be watching closely to see how Verstappen leverages this newfound knowledge in his pursuit of glory.

Stay tuned for more thrilling updates from the world of Formula 1, as this season promises to be one for the ages!
