Verstappen has also discussed the possibility of taking a sabbatical, saying, “It’s difficult to say when you’ve never had a break, right? I will always be on the grid until the end of 2028. I’m still very young, but I always said that I also want to do other kinds of competitions, a bit like what Fernando did.”
He also noted that, after achieving great success in the sport, it would need to be “worth it” for him to come back if he were to take a break, as it would be hard to motivate himself to continue traveling around the world and not spending time with his family and friends.
