Max Verstappen will be on track when the WTCR FIA World Touring Car Cup presented by OSCARO heads to the Netherlands later this season.

The Red Bull driver will be in action at the Jumbo Racing Days, driven by Max Verstappen, which takes place at Zandvoort from 17-19 May.

Verstappen is set to demo a Red Bull F1 car on both the Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 in front of thousands of his adoring fans.

Established as one of the highlights of the Dutch sporting calendar, the Jumbo Racedagen attracted a record 110,000 fans last year and features high-speed demonstration runs, plus the fourth event of the WTCR / OSCARO season with three races from the action-packed global series.

At his Jumbo Racedagen appearance in 2018, Verstappen visited the grid ahead of Race 2 and told Eurosport that he watches the all-action series.

"I said after the first two (Jumbo Racedagen) events we should create a big event around it as well, not just demonstration laps," said Verstappen. "For the WTCR joining this event is great and I really enjoy watching it as well.

"I really enjoy this weekend. It's great to see and the fans also stay for every series. They're just very passionate about racing in general."

Tickets for the Jumbo Racedagen are already on sale and more information is available at Circuitzandvoort.nl
