Red Bull champ Max Verstappen once shared sallies with the Holywood star Chris Hemsworth when the latter came to attend an F1 Grand Prix.
At the 2019 Singapore Grand Prix, Hollywood star Chris Hemsworth showed up at the track and did not go home without a one-on-one exchange of banters with Red Bull star Max Verstappen.
Hemsworth, known for playing Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies, has proven himself to be a certified F1 fan with his appearances on the track. The Australian actor has also played the role of 1976 F1 champion James Hunt in the marvellous F1 biopic named Rush.
At the Marina Bay Circuit in 2019, Hemsworth engaged in some fun activities with the podium winner of the race, Verstappen and also recorded a video for the fans.
The video has repeatedly surfaced on the internet showing the Dutchman exchanging friendly gags with the $130 Million Australian star.
The duo got involved in a pit-stop challenge and Verstappen said, “You(Chris) won for the camera and I(Max) just won for the fans.”

Celebrities showing up at the paddock and meeting the drivers during race weekend is not a surprise but in some incidences, these mere interactions turn into unique moments that fans recall every now and then.
