Max Verstappen has said that in an “ideal world” he would own F1 and run the sport his way, with fewer regulations and politics. Verstappen’s incredible record-breaking 2023 season brought him his third F1 world title and Red Bull Racing’s sixth constructors’ title. The season isn’t over yet, but it will be difficult to top that in the future.
In fact, many hope that doesn’t happen, as unrelenting dominance tends to erode fan interest over time. While Verstappen enjoys living in the fast lane at the top of the F1 pyramid, he has been critical of some of the sporting elements of Grand Prix racing, such as track limits and F1’s sprint events, and has been criticized by those in power. I hope it will be destroyed. Verstappen also laments that political inertia weighs heavily on the sport and hinders change. “There are too many rules in F1 to consider and too many political factors to make changes and decisions,” Verstappen said. He believes Verstappen would be willing to get more involved in F1 to help solve current problems and steer it into the future. However, rather than proposing ideas or discussing issues on a personal level, the GPDA (Grand Prix Drivers Association), currently chaired by former F1 driver Alex Wurz, has more influence. I would like to have a seat at the discussion table. “Of course, as GPDA we want to have a say,” Verstappen said. “I would like to be an F1 owner if I could, but that’s not the real world.” “We continue to express our concerns, but we also express what was done right and keep the dialogue open. “We always want them ( “We want to listen as well, communicate and see what comes out over the next few years.” Verstappen’s Red Bull team-mate and 13th F1 driver Sergio Perez, who is coming to the end of his second season, agrees that GPDA should carry more weight. “I think it would be better if the GPDA could have a little more influence, because it’s not just a single driver,” Perez commented. “It’s the board and the majority of us all who live this sport. It’s great that as an association we will be taking the GPDA’s views into account even more in the near future.”
