With a total of 400 points, due to the last race, Max Verstappen remains 177 points behind SĂ©rgio Perez, and if the Belgian achieves a higher score in the next matches, two weeks from now, he will be able to achieve a record and conquer the position of three-time champion.
The last competition also marked another milestone in the driver’s career, as the athlete managed to break the mark that until then was held by Michael Schumacher, due to the number of races won. However, his teammate Sergio PĂ©rez was unable to achieve any success in the match.
Recently, assumptions emerged that Red Bull Racing would be considering new partners to accompany Max Verstappen in his performance next year. The team boss, Christian Horner, had commented that by the end of 2028 he wants the best athletes available for the team, leaving doubts about renewing the contract with the Mexican.
