F1 Today | Verstappen reveals post-F1 plans as Horner joins engine loophole debate

Now 28 years old, Max Verstappen is about to tackle his fourth major regulatory overhaul in Formula 1, a milestone that places him among the most seasoned and decorated competitors on the grid.

Beyond his commitments in F1, Verstappen has been increasingly active in GT racing, overseeing a GT3 operation that competes across multiple GT World Challenge championships. He has also expressed interest in adding the 24 Hours of Nürburgring to his racing résumé.

Looking further ahead, Verstappen has been clear about his long-term ambitions. While his profile within F1 continues to grow, he has dismissed the idea of transitioning into a managerial role once he steps away from the cockpit, opting instead to channel his focus toward sportscar racing in his post-F1 career.

Speaking publicly for the first time since his departure from Red Bull last summer, the British manager also touched on one of the key talking points ahead of the 2026 season.
