Max Verstappen lashes out at $1m entry fee for F1 2023 season
All 20 drivers must pay a registration fee plus an extra sum based on how many poꦡints they scored last year.
Verstappen, as the 2022 F1 champion, therefore faces a colossal £847,809 ($1,023,256) bill.
𒐪“I think t🅺he amount is absurd,” Verstappen told .
“I don’t think it’s right thꩲat we have to pay so mu💙ch.
“That’s not the case i♒n other sports either. And there are more and more races.”
The only good news for the Red Bull 🌳driver is that his team might cough up the bill, on his behalf.
Red Bull consultant Helmut Marko said: “😼I’m afraid🅺 we have to pay that, if I have our contract right in my head!”
Verstappen’s entry fee is almost double the £452,524 ($545,742) that rival 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton must pay.
