Max Verstappen launches Verstappen.com Racing

The partnership between Max Verstappen et Red Bull extends a little further since the world champion of Formula 1 announced the creation of Verstappen.com Racing in partnership with the Austrian brand. This platform will aim to bring together drivers and teams from both the virtual and real worlds and supported by Verstappen.com.

In the virtual world, Verstappen.com Racing will be represented by the Redline team, with whom the Dutch driver participated in the 24 Hours of Le Mans Virtual in January. In the real world, Max's father Jos Verstappen will represent Verstappen.com Racing in the Belgian Rally Championship and Thierry Vermeulen will do so as a rookie in the ADAC GT Masters Championship. All cars, real or virtual, will have the Verstappen.com Racing x Red Bull logo on their livery.

“Racing has always been my greatest passion in life, from the moment I took my first steps in a kart until today, said Max Verstappen as part of this announcement. Besides my own Formula 1 career, racing is what I spend most of my time doing. »

“I am really happy that with the Verstappen.com Racing team I can share the love of racing with drivers and teams to whom I feel closely connected. Besides the fun it brings me, I also get to share my running knowledge with them, which I hope will help everyone improve. »

“Having agreed a long-term deal with Red Bull Racing earlier this year, I am very excited to be part of the Red Bull family for many years to come. The close partnership with Red Bull as a company is also reflected in the fact that they are supporting the Verstappen.com Racing Team for years to come, which makes me very proud. I can't wait to get started and keep pushing hard. »
