Can Any of 100 Amateurs Beat Max Verstappen in a Go-Kart?

ESPN set up a go-kart race pitting four-time Formula 1 world champion Max Verstappen against 100 amateur drivers to see whether any of them could beat him. The amateurs got the same karts, the same track and the same green light as the Red Bull driver, with no handicaps in either direction. Verstappen, who began his career in karts at age four, treated the event as light off-season work.
