“Don’t say I’m typing like a T-Rex” - Max Verstappen once reacted to being trolled online by fans for his typing

Max Verstappen, without a doubt, is regarded as one of the greatest Formula 1 drivers of all time. While Verstappen's racing skills are second-to-none his typing skills once came under question from fans. So much so that fans made fun of him and compared him to a T-Rex.

Verstappen, being an avid fan of simulator racing, often takes to his sim racing set-up when he is away from the track. This not only keeps his racing habit satisfied but also allows him to spend time with his Team Redline members.

The Red Bull star often streams his simulator racing sessions on Twitch for fans to stay connected and interact. In a streamed session from May 2023, following the 2024 Miami Grand Prix, he took this opportunity to go live on Twitch once again.

However, the stream soon turned out to be a fun fest for fans once Verstappen started typing. One fan noticed he was typing with two fingers on his keyboard.

As Verstappen was done typing, a fan in the chat section wrote,

"Max typing like a trex again."

The three-time world champion saw the comment and said,

"Hey be nice, don't say I'm typing like a T-rex!"

However, the fan did not stop, soon appearing with another hilarious comment. This time the fan wrote,

"T-rex hands, Max Verstappen at it again."

Meanwhile, another fan added in the comments,

"Max typing kills me everytime"

The moment turned hilarious for his co-streamers who were present with him, as the Red Bull star showed his fingers to imitate a T-rex.

The FIA versus Max Verstappen situation at the 2024 Singapore Grand Prix turned out to be an unpleasant affair, both for fans and race officials. And amid this, the three-time world champion stated that such a situation could speed up his exit from the sport.

Following the FIA's attempt to curtail drivers' use of foul language during races, Verstappen swore during the Singapore GP press conference on Thursday. This led the FIA to penalize him with community service. However, he termed the punishment as "silly" and slammed the FIA. He said,

"These kinds of things definitely decide my future as well, when you can’t be yourself or you have to deal with these kinds of silly things. Now I am at the stage of my career where you don’t want to be dealing with this all the time. It’s really tiring. For me, that is not a way of continuing in the sport, that’s for sure."

Notably, Verstappen is under contract with Red Bull till the end of the 2028 season. However, if the Dutchman continues to be in trouble of any sort, questions about him leaving the sport could also continue to pop up.
