In The Netherlands people are supportng Max Verstappen, but also in England the atmosphere has changed. This is shown in a video from Sky Sports, where the analysts have discovered the Verstappen cheering cape.
Orange continues in England
In Zandvoort it was a big party this weekend with the Dutch Grand Prix back after 36 years. The stands were packed with people dressed in orange, which created a special atmosphere. This was not only the case for the Dutch, but the crowd in orange was also noticed abroad.
At Sky Sports, Craig Slater decided to bring cheering caps to the studio. He hands one out to his colleague Jasper Taylor, who doesn't want to sit on his chair anymore: 'I've never had a cape on before', he says during the broadcast. The Verstappen craze has also reached England.
