Verstappen: ''Not the approach to ever leave Red Bull Racing''

Max Verstappen extended his contract during the winter break for several more years, which means that the Dutchman is tied up with Red Bull Racing until at least 2023. The Dutchman shows no intention to leave the Milton Keynes team.

Although there are always wild rumours about the future of Verstappen, he usually remains relaxed. The contract with Red Bull has already been renewed several times, despite alleged interest from competitors such as Mercedes and Ferrari. For Verstappen, however, his future in F1 is seems already determinend.

In an interview on Instagram with Radio 538-DJ Wietze de Jager, Verstappen is asked whether he will stay with Red Bull. ''Yes. I will stay with Red Bull and i do not really have the intention to ever leave,'' Verstappen says. Whether the Dutchman refers to a collaboration until the end of his career, seems unreal for the time being.

Verstappen still has a long career ahead of him and despite the fact that he has already had five seasons in the sport, he thinks many more will follow. ''If I continue to take good care of myself physically, I'll be able to keep driving in Formula 1 until I'm forty'', concludes Verstappen, who could then potentially reach a total of 24 seasons in F1.
