Max taking delivery was confirmed by fellow Formula One Racer Mark Webber through twitter and by a Swedish newspaper called Blick. As per reports, Max's dad, Jos Verstappen said, "If Max wants to buy something costly, he must get permission from us first. Like now with his private car. But Max is very responsible on normal roads."

The Porsche 911 GT3 RS is a potent track-focused car made by the German carmaker and sports a 4.0-litre, six-cylinder engine that makes 493bhp. That is enough to rocket the car from a standstill to 100km/h in 3.3 seconds. Also, the Porsche 911 GT3 RS sports a rear axle steering system.
