Quadruple Formula 1 world champion, Max Verstappen still has many good years ahead of him. At 27, the Dutchman also has a contract until 2028 with Red Bull.

Still far from the 7 world championship titles of Lewis Hamilton et Michael SchumacherMax Verstappen has nevertheless already entered the history of Formula 1. Crowned 4 times, the Dutchman can add several crowns in the years to come. At 27, the pilot Red Bull still has time, especially since he has a contract running until 2028. But Verstappen will he follow through with this commitment? If we talk about a possible departure to another team, he could also decide to stop everything.
-“He doesn’t see himself as Fernando or Lewis”
Will we then see again Max Verstappen long in Formula 1? Christian Hornerdirector of Red Bullraised the subject. In comments reported by NextGen Autohe confided regarding the future of the Dutchman: “ Honestly, Max is a special man and from the conversations I've had it's clear that he doesn't see himself as Fernando or Lewis and doesn't want to stay in the sport for the next 15. He has interests outside of Formula 1. He likes to drive GT cars, he likes to drive simulators, he likes to drive prototypes and there are some things that he's very old fashioned at in many ways. The noise and circus surrounding Formula 1 do not suit him, and as long as he enjoys doing what he does, he will do it ».
“As soon as this pleasure fades, he goes off to do something else”
« As soon as this pleasure diminishes, he will have the strength of character and personality to say “You know what, I'm going to go race GT cars next year”. He is unique in the sense that Formula 1 does not define him, he enjoys it and loves it, but as soon as that pleasure wears off he goes off to do something else. We are very grateful that he is our pilot, and we hope that this remains the case for many years, at least until 2028, but no one has a crystal ball », he added on Verstappen.
