Red Bull contract is said by those aware of everything to make him the third best paid driver in Formula 1 behind Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel from one year from now.
The group won’t uncover the correct sum however, by procedure of end, the Dutchman’s compensation for the following three years will be between £18-26m. Not terrible for a 20-year-old will’s identity beginning just his fourth full season in F1.
Be that as it may, the thing is, Verstappen is justified, despite all the trouble.
Where precisely he remains in the chain of command of best drivers in the sport is an issue for talk about. Yet, it’s difficult to contend after this season he isn’t in the talk with Hamilton, Vettel, his Red Bull colleague Daniel Ricciardo and McLaren’s Fernando Alonso.
This isn’t to criticize Ricciardo. He level beat Vettel when they were colleagues at Red Bull in 2014, is a world-class driver himself, and completed in front of Verstappen in the title.
As Red Bull group vital Christian Horner puts it: “We know Daniel is a mind boggling qualifier so it demonstrates the level Max is working at.”
Ricciardo is the first to recognize how much his colleague has ventured forward this year.
Red Bull have unmistakably arrived at a similar conclusion. Verstappen’s agreement as of now raced to 2019. In any case, when they trusted Mercedes were sniffing around in the pre-fall, the group moved rapidly to secure him for one more year.
It’s anything but difficult to perceive any reason why Red Bull were so resolved to keep hold of Verstappen. In his first full season with the group, he has based on the exceptional impression he had officially made in 2016, when he was advanced from junior group Toro Rosso after four races to supplant Daniil Kvyat.
