Max Verstappen swaps Formula 1 for GT racing this weekend as he competes in the final round of the GT World Challenge season in Portimão.
Sampling his first taste of GT racing at the Nurburgring 24 Hours earlier this year, the four-time F1 world champion features in the #3 Team Verstappen Racing car alongside British drivers Ben Barnicoat and Chris Lulham.
Verstappen is not the only headline entry in the 61 GT3 car field as former MotoGP world champion Valentino Rossi takes to four wheels in Portugal, while Charles Leclerc's younger brother, Arthur, is another entry.
The Dutchman heads into this weekend's action off the back of an excellent week which saw him pick up his first win of the 2026 F1 season in Malaysia before taking the chequered flag in Singapore.
