Max Verstappen is set to remain with Red Bull Racing through the 2030 F1 season, according to reports. This extension of his contract comes with a substantial financial commitment from the team. F1 business journalist Marc Limacher claims that Verstappen will earn €92 million ($107 million) per year from 2027, with performance bonuses potentially increasing that figure to €115 million ($134 million) annually.
The four-year deal could then be worth €460 million ($538 million). Red Bull and Verstappen have not yet officially confirmed these figures. The reported package highlights the immense importance of Verstappen to Red Bull, given his four consecutive Drivers' Championships from 2021 to 2024 and his status as the face of Red Bull's modern F1 era.
Despite Mercedes, Ferrari, and McLaren showcasing strong form due to new 2026 regulations, Verstappen has opted to continue with Red Bull. The team principal, Laurent Mekies, praised Verstappen's loyalty and expressed his own vision for the team's future, emphasizing the need to build a car that can challenge for more championships.
