RACING LEGEND CHALLENGES: Max Verstappen to Race 100 Karts at Once...

Max Verstappen faces 100 kart drivers at Silverstone today in a 30-lap race where he starts dead last—a stunt Red Bull is streaming across Disney+ and ESPN at noon Eastern. The four-time Formula 1 champion must pass every competitor to win, giving content creators and Red Bull athletes a genuine head start. Similar challenges have drawn F1 drivers before—Alex Albon raced 25 kids last year, Oliver Bearman raced 50 amateurs last month—but Verstappen's profile and the scale make this the most ambitious version yet. The karts were sourced from Eastern Europe specifically for the event.
