Max vs 100 is an innovative karting challenge developed around a straightforward idea: Verstappen starts at the very back of a 101-driver line-up and tries to overtake every other competitor within a limited number of laps. The same karts will be used for the race, so driver skill will determine the results.
The race is thought to consist of 30 laps, and Verstappen has to weave through the traffic and take the lead while doing away with as many competitors as possible. It has been called a competition and a show that will be exciting for the fans to see the Red Bull driver being part of an activity with quite an unusual racing set-up.
