Verstappen, who has previously voiced his frustrations over certain aspects of the sport, hinted that the punishment for his language during the Singapore Grand Prix weekend might influence his future.
Verstappen was handed a community service penalty after using the f-word during the drivers’ press conference in Singapore, a decision that has caused a stir in the paddock.
Despite being under contract with Red Bull until 2028, the reigning world champion has made no secret of his view that he is not looking to break longevity records in the sport.
Speaking to Sky Germany, when Ralf Schumacher was asked about the Dutchman’s future, he admitted that wouldn’t be surprised if Verstappen decided to call it a day sooner rather than later, especially if tensions with the FIA continue to escalate.”At the moment, I see him at Red Bull, but of course, that depends on whether the car becomes good enough again and whether he can win again because that’s what he wants. He absolutely wants to win,” Schumacher commented.Verstappen’s passion for racing, rather than F1 itself, has often been cited as a reason why the Dutch driver may not have a long-term future in the sport.
