Max Verstappen, the Formula 1 World Champion (2021), renewed his contract with Red Bull Racing until the end of 2028 and is estimated to earn between 44 and 55 million dollars annually.

The ToroRosso team (today known as AlphaTauri) signed Max Verstappen in 2014, when he was only 16 years old, so at that time it was illegal for him to drive in Belgium.

His debut in the top flight came in March 2015, when he was already 17 years old. However, he still did not have his license.

Verstappen was promoted to the Red Bull team in May 2016, when only four races of that season had been held. Nobody can doubt that it was the right decision, since the Dutchman ended up winning the Spanish GP, his debut race with the Austrian team, and made history by becoming the youngest driver in F1 history to take a victory .

However, the Frenchman started off on the wrong foot, having a pre-season crash that weighed down the team on the final day test. Gasly's pace was much lower than that of his teammate Max Verstappen and he rode far behind both the Dutchman and the other riders in the upper area. A clear example was the Austrian GP, where Verstappen won the race and Gasly ended up doubled with the same car. Finally, after the Hungarian GP, due to his lack of rhythm and results, Gasly was demoted to Toro Rosso and his place at Red Bull was taken by Alexander Albon.​​
