MAX VERSTAPPEN has turned heads in Monaco this week, but for once it is not for his electric pace on the Formula One track.
Instead, it is his £12million super yacht, named “Unleash the Lion” which has left onlookers stunned.
In January the four-time world champion was seen inspecting a luxury yacht alongside partner Kelly Piquet.
And those visiting Monte Carlo for the F1 Grand Prix weekend were treated to a sight of Verstappen’s spectacular 33-metre Mangusta GranSport 33.
The vessel, built by Overmarine and launched in the winter break, can accommodate 12 guests with five staterooms and a further three cabins for crew members.
On top, there are multiple lounging areas and a spacious sundeck while also having a BEACH CLUB at its stern for easy access to water.

However, behind the wheel Verstappen has been a bit less impressive.
