Speaking ahead of this weekend’s Canadian Grand Pr꧒ix, Verstappen revealed he was denied the same💟 opportunity. 

“I wanted to do it but I was n♍ot allowed from Helmut,” 🐼Verstappen said. “He knew I’d try go to the limit. I would have loved to do it.

“I heard this thing was coming up and Helmut, because I think we were sitting at a table when it came up, he was like ‘no, no, no you’✱re not doing that’.”

Asked why he didn’t use his sway within Red Bull to persuade his bosses to change their minds🎃, Verstappen answered: “I don’t want✅ to start unnecessary issues. I found it quite funny.”

Verstappen played down the risks of driving around ‘The Green Hell’ and pointed out that modern F1 ci💫rcuits still pose dangers.ꦬ 

“It’s also risky t🅠o drive here [in Montreal],” the two-time world champion🍎 said. 

“It depends how you hit a barrier. But💜 that’s normally not the plan of course, hopefully one day I’ll get to do it.”

He added: “Ideally, that would have been amazing in an F1 car. But if it's not allowed in an F1 car, then maybe one day in a GT3 car☂."
