Verstappen Plans to Race at Nürburgring and Spa 24-Hour Races Next Year, Not Le Mans
Max Verstappen intends to compete in the 24 Hours of Nürburgring and the 24 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps next year, excluding the 24 Hours of Le Mans from his schedule. Speaking in Baku ahead of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Verstappen confirmed his interest in returning to the Nürburgring after a previous technical retirement, provided he can balance preparations with Formula 1 commitments. Additionally, Verstappen supported Red Bull’s decision to extend Isack Hadjar’s contract, praising the rookie’s performance despite missing recent races due to a wrist injury. The Azerbaijan Grand Prix schedule has been moved forward to Saturday due to a national day of remembrance.
