The Red Bull driver often spends time with P and shares hilarious exchanges with his friends while streaming.

Verstappen’s happiness to receiving $15 is all the more surprising as reports suggest that after a year, he could be the first driver to earn a whopping $100,000,000 per year.

Verstappen could earn $100 million per year from 2024 onwards

According to a report put out by Business F1, Max Verstappen’s manager, Raymond Vermeulen, is attempting to sign a new contract for his client towards the end of 2024 that could see the Dutchman earn a whopping $100 million per year. The report states that negotiations are already underway between Vermeulen, Christian Horner and Helmut Marko.

Even though such reports have emerged, there are doubts about how much longer will Verstappen want to continue in F1. The 25-year-old has repeatedly raised retirement concerns this year and explained how he has already achieved everything he wanted to in F1. As a result, he does not receive much more satisfaction in doing the same thing over and over again.
