Max Verstappen Signs New Deal With Red Bull Until End Of 2028

LONDON: Formula One World champion Max Verstappen has signed a bumper five-year contract extension with Red Bull, in a deal that will keep him at the team until at least the end of 2028.

The 24-year-old, who joined the team in 2016, beat Lewis Hamilton on the final lap of the 2021 season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix to clinch his maiden world championship.

His previous deal ran until the end of next season, but both sides were keen to extend what has become a very successful partnership.

Commenting on the deal, Verstappen said, "I really enjoy being part of Red Bull Racing, so choosing to stay for the 2028 season was an easy decision."

Verstappen is hoping for more scenes like this in the coming years with Red Bull. IANS
