Formula 1 world champion Max Verstappen presented his race-worn helmet from the Brazilian Grand Prix to long-time Red Bull Racing mechanic Ole Schack as a farewell gift, marking the veteran crew member's departure from the team.

The gesture was captured in a social media post from the account @evrythngformu1a on X, showing Verstappen handing over the helmet to Schack, who has been a key part of Red Bull's pit crew for many seasons.

Verstappen's gift highlights the close bond between drivers and their mechanics in the high-pressure environment of Formula 1. The Brazilian Grand Prix took place earlier in November 2026.
