Max Verstappen joked about vacating his Red Bull F1 seat for Kimi Raikkonen's son Robin, who joined the team's Junior Programme following the Italian GP at Monza. Raikkonen's son, who started karting at 11, was signed by Red Bull prior to his retirement, surprising many. Despite his retirement, Raikkonen has remained active with Robin in karting.
Four-time champion Verstappen met the Raikkonen family during the Italian GP, expressing happiness about seeing them. When asked about Robin's potential future in F1, considering the decade gap between them, Verstappen jokingly replied, "Yeah, who knows, right? I mean, maybe, maybe not. I guess eventually they also need a seat for him in the team, so then yeah, maybe I'll move aside."
