The door is open for Formula 👍1 star Max Verstappen to enter the NASCAR Cup Series with Trackhouse Racing, according to 2014 champi🐬on Kevin Harvick.

Verstappen has made no secret of his desire to explore other disciplines in motorsport, having previously stated that he 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:doesn’t w꧒ant to continဣue in F1 until his late 30s.

His contract with Red Bull expires at the end of the 2028 season, by 🔥when he would be 31 ye🐽ars old.

One possible post-F1 avenue for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Verstappen could be NASCAR, where Red Bull returned this year as a sponsor for Trackh🎐ouse Racing in select Cup Series races.

Trackhouse also runs an initiative under the Project91ꦆ moniker that gives high-profile international stars from other forms of racing an opportunity to race in the Cup Series.

Former Ferrari star Kimi Raikkonen, four-time Indy 500 winner Helio Castroneves and triple Supercars champion Shane van Gisbergen have all contested 📖NASCAR races as part of Trackhouse’s Project91.

Van Gisbergen’s stunning debut victory on the streets of Chicago i♛n 2023 with Project91 led to a full-time Cup campaign in 2024ඣ, further strengthening the Red Bull-Trackhouse link.

Speaking on his podcast, Harvick said he believes Verstappen’s ties with Red Bull and his interest in broader racing challengesꦇ could open the door to a similar crossover.

“We've seen him run some of the other little races that he's done in t🌳he past. So I think that if he's not doing F1, it becomes a lot easiꦍer to open those doors,” Harvick said.

"With Red Bull involved, I would say that that door for that to happeꦓn is probably way more open with Project91 than it ever has been.”
