The last leg of an F1 triple-header moves to Spain on Sunday.
At the 70th Anniversary Grand Prix, Max Verstappen was the star, winning the GP while holding off both Mercedes cars in a gutsy and entertaining performance in which he showcased both his skill and charisma that makes him a surefire star in the future of F1.
This week, the drivers change course and head for Spain, where Verstappen won his first ever GP and set a record for the youngest driver to ever win a F1 grand prix at 18 years, 228 days young. In fact, in four appearances in the Spanis Grand Prix, Verstappen has one win, three total podiums and one retirement.

Verstappen's rise has helped him in the standings, as well, as he currently sits second behind Lewis Hamilton in points in the 2020 F1 season, 107 to 77. Should Verstappen (four podiums) in 2020 continue to push himself and Team Red Bull, then a driver's championship might not be completely out of the question in 2020.
