Ferstappen and Red Bull together until 2028 with a legendary contract
Max Ferstappen has signed a contract with Red Bull extending the partnership for the next six years. See how much money the Dutchman will make per year.
Max Ferstappen and Red Bull agreed on a remarkably long-term deal. The F1 champion signed a contract with the Austrian team, extending the collaboration for another 5 years until 2028.
Ferstappen’s annual profit is reportedly around 40 million euros.
After signing his new contract, the Dutchman explained: “I love being a part of the Oracle Red Bull Racing Team so staying on through 2028 was an easy decision. I love this team and last year was just amazing. “Since we were together in 2016, our goal has been to win the championship and we have achieved that, so the only thing that remains now is to keep the number 1 in the car in the long term.”.
Red Bull team boss Christian Horner said that this agreement clearly shows the team’s intentions for the years to come, noting significantly: “Maintaining Max’s World Championship is our immediate focus, but this agreement also shows that it is part of the team’s long-term plan. As the Red Bull Powertrains division works on the new engine regulations that will come into effect in 2026, we wanted to make sure we secured the best driver in the field for this car“.
