Kicking off a career at Red Bull
Max Verstappen Secures Nordschleife License, Committed to Red Bull Racing
Max Verstappen, the four-time Formula 1 world champion, has added another feather to his cap by obtaining his Nordschleife license. This achievement comes after a diligent follow-up with a driving instructor, despite the challenging nature of the race and the restrictions placed on his Porsche, which included a heavily restricted power and 150 kilograms of extra baggage.
Verstappen's journey to securing the license was not without its hurdles. Andreas Gülden, the chief instructor, found it challenging to explain ideal lines to the racing star during the race. However, Verstappen's humility shone through as he demonstrated a willingness to learn and adapt to the unique challenges of the Nordschleife.
Despite the difficulties, Verstappen enjoyed the experience, expressing his satisfaction with the race despite the car being super slow. His close friend, Gabriel Bortoleto, Sauber driver, praised Verstappen's Nordschleife license experience but jokingly criticized his initial performance.
Verstappen's commitment to Red Bull Racing is unwavering. He joined the team in 2016 after starting with Toro Rosso and has since achieved 66 Grand Prix victories and four world championships with them. This loyalty is evident as he has turned down offers from Mercedes and Ferrari, stating that he plans to continue racing with Red Bull until the end of his career.
Red Bull and Verstappen will be embarking on a new chapter together as the team prepares to start the upcoming season with a self-developed powertrain for the first time. Verstappen has expressed his excitement about this development and his continued relationship with the Red Bull team, calling them a great family.
Looking ahead, Verstappen has plans to compete in the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring next year. With his Nordschleife license in hand, he is well-equipped to tackle this challenging race.
Despite the sporting struggles and personnel changes that Red Bull has faced this year, Verstappen's dedication to the team remains strong. The team's shared successes and Verstappen's personal achievements serve as a testament to their strong bond. As Verstappen continues to break records on the track, it is clear that his future with Red Bull Racing is bright.
