FIA hit Verstappen with shock drug test for BANNED substance

Max Verstappen was taken by surprise when he was awoken early on Friday for a drug test.

Continuing his story whilst live for an Esports World Cup watch along, he said: “So I’m in bed and suddenly the doorbell rings.
“I’m like, ‘what the f***? Who the f*** is ringing the doorbell of the motorhome?’ And then I look at my phone it’s 7 o’clock [in the morning] and I’m like, ‘what the f*** is going on?’“So I go to the door and open the door and, yep, doping control! At 7am! I was like ‘great, what a great start to the weekend!’ Then it took me one hour to go to the toilet, so that was also fantastic.”As is custom in drug tests, Verstappen had to offer a urine sample for officials to test. “Yes, you have to wait until you can pee in the cup,” he added, revealing that he had done so many times.

   The Dutchman said that he has been tested for banned substances by the FIA ​​regularly in 2024: “I don’t know why, but this year I have been tested already five times, which I think in F1 is quite a lot,” he said, revealing that he was also tested in Spa last time out.No F1 drivers have been found to breach anti-doping regulations whilst competing in the sport, though part-time Super Aguri F1 Team driver Franck Montagny and three-time race starter Tomas Enge did test positive later in their careers for prohibited substances, both receiving bans.
