It was an impressive stunt that captured the attention of millions, but Red Bull could face a large penalty following its F1 snow demonstration.

Austrian newspaper Tiroler Tageszeitung has reported that the multi-faceted brand could be facing a €30,000 (£23,318) fine for the demonstration earlier this month, in which Formula One prodigy Max Verstappen took to the wheel of a 2011 RB7 on the well-known Streif ski course in Kitzbuhel, Austria.
