Max Verstappen expressed his commitment to staying with Red Bull for the time being, without any consideration of a potential move to Ferrari. The surprising decision by Lewis Hamilton to join Scuderia Ferrari in 2025 will have a significant impact on the Formula 1 driver market. Many expected Hamilton to finish his career at Mercedes, but his move to Maranello caught the sporting world off guard. Despite this, the current F1 champion is content with his current team, Red Bull Racing.
Verstappen acknowledged his respect for Ferrari as the most successful team in the history of the sport. However, he made it clear that he is currently satisfied with his position at Milton Keynes. Having been a part of the Red Bull family for almost ten years, the three-time world champion has established strong relationships with Red Bull Motorsport Consultant.
The Dutch driver emphasized his comfort at Red Bull and his lack of interest in making a career change. Verstappen is under contract with Milton Keynes until the end of 2028. However, he did leave the possibility open for a potential move to Ferrari in the future. As of now, though, such a switch is not on his mind.
Verstappen and Red Bull have formed one of the most dominant partnerships in Formula 1 history. The Dutch driver has had a record-breaking run with the Austrian team in recent years, leaving little chance for the competition. Moving forward, Milton Keynes aims to achieve further historic success with their star driver.
In the upcoming season, the three-time world champion will push himself to the limit. Verstappen has set his sights on winning a fourth consecutive F1 title, as he revealed his new crash helmet. However, Red Bull may face stronger competition from their rivals this year.
Verstappen has already tested the new RB-20 at Silverstone, a significant development from its dominant predecessor. This suggests that Verstappen and Red Bull could continue their dominant streak in the sport. Nonetheless, it remains to be seen whether their rivals can finally close the gap to Milton Keynes this season.
