Max Verstappen is a generational talent. That being said, even the greatest of all times sometimes mess it up. During the practice sessions before the Mexican Grand Prix, Verstappen showed us his human side.

Verstappen had been wrestling his RB18 for almost the entire session. However, in the second sector of the lap, he lost control at the esses and spun. Fans were quick to take to Twitter to share this rare Verstappen mistake.

Even though the now 2x Champion has been flawless and dominant the whole season, he’s made the odd mistake here or there. But having said that, none of those mistakes have canceled out the inevitable this season. This didn’t stop the fans though, who swarmed the social media platform to share the spin and have some fun at the expense of the Dutch driver.
