Max Verstappen set a number of records with his stunning victory in the Spanish Grand Prix. In doing so, Verstappen became the youngest grand prix winner in history, the youngest driver to score a podium finish, the first Dutch grand prix winner, the first driver to win on his Red Bull debut and the youngest driver to lead a lap of a grand prix. Not bad.
