Verstappen has previously revealed he is unsure how long his F1 career will continue, with the goal of starting a family of his own and other racing achievements clearly at the forefront of his mind outside of the pinnacle of motorsport.

The reigning champion announced ahead of the 2024 season finale last weekend that he and girlfriend Kelly Piquet, model and daughter of three-time champion Nelson Piquet, are expecting their first child together.

Verstappen endured a tough weekend out on track, eventually finishing the final race of the year down in sixth, with a DNF from struggling team-mate Sergio Perez meaning Red Bull couldn't manage higher than P3 in the 2024 constructors' championship.
