Verstappen praises Red Bull: 'It feels very good'

Max Verstappen decided in pre-season to extend his contract at Red Bull Racing until 2028. While this caused many enthusiastic reactions, it was only logical for the Dutchman to stay longer with the Austrian racing stable.

Verstappen came to drive for Red Bull in the 2016 season and has been developing at lightning speed ever since. Although for seasons he did not have the car to compete with Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes, last season he succeeded. It immediately brought him the world title.

Verstappen has positive words for Red Bull

The world title only gave Red Bull more reasons to sit down with Verstappen and try to tie him to the team for longer. Both parties had the intention to continue with each other for a longer period of time, so it was only a matter of time until an agreement was reached.

"We get along very well," the driver told Verstappen.com. "It feels very good, natural and familiar. We also always had the belief in each other that we could become world champions. We have achieved that together now, of course, and I therefore see no reason to want to be with another team."
