Max Verstappen drives a Nissan in Fuji.

      Max Verstappen arrived in Japan from Germany ahead of schedule, where he participated in a 4-hour race of the NLS series at the Nordschleife of the Nürburgring last weekend. The four-time world champion's team claimed victory but was later disqualified for using seven sets of tires instead of the allowed six.

      In Japan, before the start of the race weekend in Suzuka, Max headed to another track – Fuji. Today he got behind the wheel of the Nissan Z NISMO GT500 in the signature Red Bull colors. And although the weather left much to be desired, Verstappen tested the new car for him, completing several laps in the rain.
