Max Verstappen Receives Platinum Driver Rating from FIA, Sparks Speculation of Summer Break Racing Extravaganza

In a shocking turn of events, Max Verstappen, the four-time F1 champion, has been awarded the prestigious ‘platinum’ driver rating by the FIA, setting the stage for a potential summer break outing that has motorsport fans on the edge of their seats.

The FIA driver ratings, ranging from platinum to bronze, are assigned based on the level of competition a driver has experienced. Verstappen now joins an elite group of just six current F1 drivers, including the likes of Fernando Alonso, Lando Norris, and Nico Hulkenberg, in holding the coveted platinum status.

Speculations are rife that Verstappen might make an appearance at the KW 6h ADAC Ruhr-Pokal-Rennen event on August 16, amidst F1’s summer break. While applying for the driver rating does not guarantee his participation, it certainly paves the way for a seamless entry should Verstappen decide to grace the track with his presence.

When asked about his FIA driver rating application, Verstappen nonchalantly remarked, “I applied because I have to do it at some point, so it’s better I get it out of the way.” The Dutch racing prodigy even joked about aiming for a lower rating, saying, “I was secretly hoping for a bronze rating. I might appeal the platinum, [and] get silver at least.”

With Verstappen’s newfound platinum status and the tantalizing possibility of a summer break racing escapade, the motorsport world is abuzz with anticipation and excitement. Will the Red Bull ace thrill fans with his presence on the track during the break? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure – Verstappen’s platinum rating has opened the door to a world of thrilling possibilities in the realm of motorsport.
