Max Verstappen's 2024 Triumph: Skill, Strategy, and Salary Shifts
Max Verstappen, the highest-paid driver in Formula 1, will see a $19 million reduction in his Red Bull bonus for the 2024 season due to fewer race victories compared to 2023. Despite securing his fourth consecutive World Championship, Verstappen's bonus is impacted by increased competition from teams like McLaren, Ferrari, and Mercedes. Meanwhile, Red Bull's team principal Christian Horner received an 11% pay rise following the team's record-breaking 2023 season.
