MAX VERSTAPPEN CONFIRMS MASSIVE GT3 TEAM EXPANSION AND CAR SWAP FOR 2026 SEASON
Max Verstappen balances life as a new father with plans to move his GT3 team into the pro championship for 2026.
_1766561697.webp)
Max Verstappen is more than just a Formula 1 driver. By 2025, he'd become a dad and a GT3 winner!
Red Bull's okay with him squeezing in as much racing as he can. It seems to help him stay sharp.
Verstappen's always been into sim racing. This year, he took it up a notch by racing in a GT World Challenge Europe Endurance Cup race at the Nurburgring.
Even though the 2026 F1 stuff will take up loads of his time, he's not giving up his hobby. He's got big plans.
Verstappen said Red Bull’s new engine sounded crisp when he first heard it. They're making their own engines for the first time next year.
Oliver Minzlaff laughed off Verstappen's claim that he pulls strings behind the scenes. He said that's not how they work.
Max Verstappen is planning bigger and better GT3 racing for 2026. He wants to team up with Fernando Alonso at Le Mans, if he ever gets the chance.
Right now, that's not on the cards. But he can still do the GT3 racing he's allowed to. He just told the Talking Bull Podcast that his plans are bigger and better in 2026.
Yeah, it’s getting serious, he said. We entered this year, but not as a pro car; we were in the Gold Cup.
One of the drivers came from sim racing, so putting him straight into the pro car championship was maybe too much.
But, we always compared ourselves with the pro cars, lap time-wise—that’s what we were aiming for.
We won the gold cup championship, which is just below the pro cars. "That was our target at the start of the year," Verstappen continued.
The drivers got better during the year and got a better grip on how to deal with car problems and balance.
Figuring out how to go faster and get the most out of qualifying and races. Next year, we want to be in the pro championship. We’re swapping cars, but I can't say which one yet. You'll find out soon. It’s getting bigger.
How good is Max Verstappen at GT3 cars?
Verstappen’s GT3 debut was kind of amazing. One of his best skills was weaving through traffic without a problem.
It's very different from F1, but he took to it well.
His sim racing helped, and winning at the Nürburgring probably made him even more keen.
With another 24 F1 races in 2026, Verstappen won't have much time for GT3 racing. But he's not dropping it anytime soon.
THE 2026 ULTIMATUM: WHY NEXT SEASON IS "MAKE OR BREAK" FOR LEWIS HAMILTON
After a winless 2025 debut, Lewis Hamilton faces a pivotal year. See why Steiner believes the 7x champ is nearing the F1 exit.
Guenther Steiner, who used to run the Haas team, thinks Lewis Hamilton might quit Formula 1 if Ferrari can't get to the top of the Driver's Championship by 2026—he thinks that season will be super important for the racing star.
Hamilton had a tough first year with Ferrari, ending up sixth in the F1 rankings with 156 points.
That was 86 points behind his teammate, Charles Leclerc, and he didn't even get on the podium once, which is a first for him in a full season.
He often said he was bummed out about how his Ferrari debut was going.
Back in November, after the Las Vegas Grand Prix, he told Sky Sports, I feel awful. This has been the worst season ever, and it just keeps getting worse no matter how hard I try. I'm trying everything I can, both in and out of the car.
Hamilton looked pretty sad a lot during the season because he couldn't really fight for race wins.
Steiner told Sports Krone, I think if Ferrari has a good car next season, Hamilton might be able to turn things around. If they are more competitive, Lewis might find his drive again. But if things stay the same, next season will probably be his last in Formula 1. He's not going to go through that again. The situation is tough for him, and you could see that in every interview. So, the next season will be key for him.
What's Hamilton saying about quitting?
When the media asks Hamilton about his F1 future, he doesn't want to talk about retiring.
At the end of the season, when someone asked him what he would say to those who think he might retire soon, the 40-year-old said, I wouldn't say anything to them. None of them have done what I've done, so they don't know anything more than I do.
Last summer, after some rumors that he might leave early, Hamilton said he's staying at Ferrari until his contract is up.
He said, For those writing stories about me thinking about not racing, I've just started here with Ferrari. I've been here for a few years, and I'm in it for the long run, so there's no question about what I'm focused on achieving with this team. There are zero doubts, so please stop making stuff up.
In 2026, everyone will still be wondering about Hamilton's future in F1, mainly if Ferrari keeps struggling with the new rules. And if Steiner is right, another year of not competing for a championship could be the end for him.
MAX VERSTAPPEN NAMED PEER-VOTED DRIVER OF THE YEAR FOR FIFTH CONSECUTIVE SEASON
Max Verstappen wins his 5th straight F1 peer award, beating champion Lando Norris. Lewis Hamilton drops out of the top 10 for the first time.

Max Verstappen copped his fifth straight driver-of-the-year award in Formula 1's secret peer vote, even though he almost grabbed a fifth title in 2025 but didn't quite make it.
The drivers all voted in secret, except for four guys. The Red Bull driver beat out Lando Norris, who just won the world championship, for the number one spot.
The voting worked like the normal F1 points system. Drivers ranked their top 10 rivals. Verstappen got 25 points from six votes to win.
Norris, who won his first championship after a crazy season, came in second in the driver rankings for the second year running.
The McLaren driver won the title after fighting off pressure from Verstappen and his teammate, Oscar Piastri, all season long.
George Russell took third, moving up one spot from last year. The Mercedes driver had a killer season with two wins and seven more podiums.
Piastri was fourth, up one spot, even though his championship hopes fizzled out near the end. The Aussie was leading by 34 points at one point before his performance dropped off.
Charles Leclerc finished fifth, down two spots, even though he got everything he could out of Ferrari's SF-25. The Monegasque driver had seven podiums during a tough season that saw Ferrari finish fourth.
Carlos Sainz held onto sixth after a great comeback at Williams. After a rough start, the Spaniard grabbed two podiums in a strong second half of the season.
Fernando Alonso jumped two spots to seventh, and the two-time world champion had some crazy drives in Aston Martin's AMR25.
Alex Albon took eighth after his best season with Williams, while rookies Oliver Bearman and Isack Hadjar rounded out the top 10, getting props for their awesome first seasons.
Pierre Gasly almost made the list, even with 10 Q3 appearances in Alpine's tricky A525.
Lewis Hamilton, who's won seven world championships, didn't show up in the rankings, which is a first since they started doing this poll. It shows how rough his first season at Ferrari was.
The four drivers who skipped the vote were Hamilton, Nico Hulkenberg, Lance Stroll, and Yuki Tsunoda.
