Verstappen Returns to GT3 Racing Against Rossi

Max Verstappen will return to GT3 racing on October 17, facing Valentino Rossi at the GT World Challenge Europe finale in Portimao.

After a hiatus since his class-leading performance at the Nurburgring 24 Hours in May, Verstappen will climb into the No. 3 Mercedes-AMG GT3, sharing duties with Chris Lulham and Ben Barnicoat. The Dutch driver faces minimal preparation time as he transitions from Formula 1 to GT3 competition against the legendary Rossi. tbzikra.org

The Portimao race marks Verstappen's first GT3 appearance since May, with the simulator setup he swears by helping bridge the gap between his F1 commitments and this unexpected GT3 challenge.
