With pancakes deeply rooted in U.S. culture, she savored a taste of it as she geared up to cheer for Verstappen this weekend. While she is enjoying the iconic flavors, Verstappen is ready to make his own mark on the track.

After a month away from competition, the Dutchman is eager to get back behind the wheel and defend his lead in the Drivers’ Championship. The excitement builds as he prepares to battle his rivals, showcasing his skill and determination.

Verstappen has only six races left to defend his title. If he can’t win races, he will aim to finish second in all races, which, coupled with a 52-point lead over Lando Norris, will do the trick. However, for Red Bull to reclaim the constructors’ lead from McLaren, he and his teammate Sergio Perez will need to secure the top steps of the podium regularly.
