Max Verstappen lashes out at $1m entry fee for F1 2023 season
All 20 drivers must pay a registration fee plus an extra𓂃 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 thin🍌k the amount is absurd,” Verstappen t🐠old .
“I don’t ಌthink it’s right that we have to pay so much.
“That’s not t༒he case in 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.
