About Max

Max Verstappen entered Formula 1 in 2015 as the youngest starter in the sport's history and won on his Red Bull debut a year later. Between 2021 and 2024 he took four consecutive Drivers' Championships, setting single-season records of 19 wins and 10 straight victories in 2023. He lost the 2025 title to Lando Norris by two points; the 2026 regulation reset has left Red Bull off the pace.
