MCLAREN star Lando Norris accidentally SMASHED Max Verstappen’s trophy while celebrating his podium finish at the Hungarian Grand Prix.
The 23-year-old, who finished the race in second place, was attempting his trademark champagne celebration when the incident occurred.
Every time he finishes in the top three, Norris hits his champagne bottle off the podium to activate the fizz before spraying.
He did so after the race in Hungary on Sunday, only this time the impact from the bottle caused Verstappen’s trophy to fall off the podium and smash to pieces.
The two-time world champion didn’t appear too phased by it however, as he proceeded to joke with Norris once the celebrations calmed down.
Fans took to Twitter to react, with one person writing: “Don’t worry about Max’s trophy, Lando… he has a lot of them!”
