Max Verstappen lashes out at $1m entry fee for F1 2023 season

All 20 drivers must pay a registration fee plus an extraꦅ sum based on how many points they scored last year.
Verstappen, as the 2022 F1 champion, therefore faces a colossal £847,809 ($1,023,256) bill.
“I think the amount is absurd,” Verstappen tꦯold .
“I don’t think it’s right that we have to pa𓆏y so much.
“That’s not the𓆏 case in other sports either. And there are more and more ra🦋ces.”
The only good news for the Red Bull driver is that his team might cough up the🌱 bill, on his behalf.
Red Bull consultant Helmu♉t Marko said: “I’m afraid we ಌhave 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5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton must pay.
