Verstappen celebrates in Kigali: punishment with heart for the young people!

Despite the supervision of FIA President Mohammed Bin Sulayem, who accompanied the action, Verstappen visibly seemed to have fun interacting with the country's young people Krone.at reported.
Verstappen in Rwanda and honor by Kagame
When he arrived for the trophy presentation, Verstappen was accompanied by his partner Kelly Piquet and Red Bull team boss Chris Horner. The Dutch racing driver received the award personally from Rwandan President Paul Kagame, who announced his ambitions for the country to host an annual Formula 1 Grand Prix. This event could aim to put Africa back at the center of Formula 1 action, where the last event took place in South Africa in 1993, as Yahoo Sports reported.
Max Verstappen, who secured the F1 driver's title again during the season, showed through his participation in the social project that he is ready to take on responsibility. During his stay, he worked with the youth of the Rwanda Automobile Club to give back to the community. The FIA released images of the 27-year-old to highlight this positive action and praise his approach to helping: "Thank you Max," the post said. The gala itself took place in a glamorous setting, with Verstappen and the McLaren team also receiving awards for their achievements.
