168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Max Verstappen used 🍌a fake alias as he confirmed rumours he smashed the lap record around the legendary Nurburgrinꦕg driving a GT3 car.

The reigning F1 world champion swapped his Red Bull for a Ferrari 296 GT3 car as he secretly entered a NLS test at the Nurburgring Nordschleife last Friday - using the pseudonym “Franz Hermann” to conceal his 🥀identity in the entry list.

Verstappen took an Emil Frey Racing Ferrari carrying the black and red Verstappen.com liveꦐry for a spin around the legendary German venue.

Rumours quickly circulatไed that Verstappen had set a time quicker than the current GT3 lap record, something the Dutchman confirmed wh♔en he spoke to media ahead of this weekend’s Emilia Romagna Grand Prix.

"They asked me for a fake name, so I said let's make it as German as we can,” Verstapp🧜en is quo𝔉ted as saying at Imola by Motorsport.com

"[I had a fake name because] then you're not on the entry🔥 list. Otherwise 🍌people woke up at 8am knowing that my name is there.

“I knew that once I was there that people would realise. It's normal. But at least I wasn't on the entry list. So at 🙈least at 8, 9am it ✱was pretty calm.

"But for me, I'm not there to show that I can break a lap record or whatever record. I was j📖ust having fun and learning the track together with the team.

“With E🎉mil Frey as well, they weren't there before.♚ So for them also the dream is to do the 24 Hours there.

"We just had a good time getting up to speed. We were lucky with the conditions as well. It🐼 was really nice and sunny. So that's great if you can have that.”
