Earlier in the season Max Verstappen lost a quiz and had to wear a blonde wig. The Dutchman instantaneously became an internet meme as people made Barbie memes from the pictures. Looks like another calamity is coming Max Verstappen’s way and Helmut Marko was recently spotted test-driving the tractor that the 25-year-old is going to drive around the Red Bull Ring. As the fans go Berserk, let’s find out what it is all about.

The driver’s parade is probably the last moment before the race where the drivers are a bit relaxed and chilled out. There are many memorable moments that occurred during the driver’s parade. The most notable one was when Daniel Ricciardo high-jacked Mercedes’ Instagram account and went live. The Australian has had a blast and posted many selfies from the account as well. Nevertheless, it looks like we’re going to have another memorable driver parade in Austria.

Safety is no joke in F1. All the F1 equipment is tested extensively before putting them into operation. Looks like Helmut Marko took that way too seriously and was spotted testing Max Verstappen’s 2023 Austrian GP ride. However, it isn’t the RB19 that Max is going to drive in the race but his driver’s parade vehicle. And guess what? It’s an orange Puch Haflinger. The Red Bull taskmaster was seen driving the tractor with Ernst Hausleitner beside him. 

The fans went Berserk at the sight of seeing Marko in a tractor. While the Miami GP driver’s parade had classic cars for each driver, imagining Max Verstappen in an orange tractor at Red Bull’s home race is beyond hilarious. Nevertheless, the fans made their own speculations about the incident as they took to social media. Let’s see what they had to say about it.

Continuing along the same theme, some suggested that Max Verstappen will break some sort of record in the tractor as he equaled Senna’s win record in Canada this month. Let’s see how the fans reacted on Twitter 

Some fans advised about the rocketship that Red Bull has built explaining how this orange Puch Haflinger will be the only tractor that Max is going to drive this season.
