Verstappen's future has been a major topic of conversation recently in F1 despite the Dutchman having a long-term contract at Red Bull Racing. The world champion has already publicly disagreed with the team's decision to demote Liam Lawson by liking an Instagram post accusing the team of 'bullying' Lawson.

The start of the 2025 Formula 1 season has not been what Red Bull was hoping for. After two race weekends, the Bulls find themselves sitting third in the Constructors’ Championship standings, looking up at both Mercedes and McLaren.
