The football legend, Neymar was spotted in the Red Bull garage ahead of the Bahrain Grand Prix. The fans are not surprised because they saw the star at several races the previous season. For admirers of both Formula 1 and football, it is the ideal crossover.

Before the race, Neymar was spotted speaking with current world champion, Max Verstappen. Sky Sports didn’t pass up the opportunity to record their most sincere exchange of words. There’s no denying that fans want to know what was exchanged between them.

Today, Max Verstappen begins the race from pole position. Max Verstappen won the Bahrain Grand Prix to start the previous season, which was his most dominant one. Red Bull expects nothing less than the same from Max in this race as well.

Everyone in the Formula 1 world is eager to see how things pan out, as Verstappen is currently leading the race. There are still a lot of laps to go, so it is still too early to declare the winner. Maybe for the Red Bull supporters, him leading the race at this stage is a sign of hope.

While Lambiase argued against it, Red Bull advisor, Marko Helmut prevailed in their bet. The latter bet on Verstappen finishing on pole. Verstappen who got pole position was able to keep 50% of the earnings out of the money that the team advisor won for winning the bet.

Verstappen laughed and jokingly apologized to Lambiase after the session when Marko disclosed that Verstappen would receive more than $27 (€25), or a total of $55 (€50) from Lambiase. In a stressful environment, moments like these are a breeze of fresh air.
