For the third time in 2025, Max Verstappen has been voted 'Driver of the Day' by fans world wide after finishing tenth at the Spanish Grand Prix. 

After starting from third on the grid, Oracle Red Bull Racing kept Max in the fight with the two McLarens by opting for a three stop race. However, after a late safety car, Max had to restart the race on a set of the hard Pirelli tyres, leaving him unable to defend or attack the drivers around him, all on the quicker soft compound.

After crossing the finish line in fifth, Verstappen was demoted to tenth, following a ten second time penalty for causing a collision with George Russell.
