[Saba Sports News] The future of Red Bull driver Max Verstappen in F1 has sparked heated discussions. After successfully securing his third F1 world championship, Verstappen has openly discussed his retirement plans, leading former McLaren mechanic Marc Priestley to doubt his long-term commitment to Formula 1 racing. Reports indicate that the 26-year-old Verstappen’s contract with Red Bull Racing will extend until 2028. However, his future remains somewhat uncertain, and he may be tempted to explore other motor sports such as the World Rally Championship or the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Some fans suggest that if Verstappen decides to leave Formula 1, he could pursue other exciting driving opportunities. When Kimi Raikkonen departed from Formula 1, he ventured into NASCAR and rally racing. Although Raikkonen never became a world champion in these competitions, he thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
