By winning the racing team championship of the 2023 season, the Red Bull racing team received a total of 140 million USD, 9 million USD more than the 2nd ranked team, Mercedes. The following racing teams on the participating list, including Ferrari, Mclaren or Aston Martin, all received prize money with a decrease of 9 million USD compared to the team ranked above.
Besides the Red Bull racing team’s bonus, the bonus amount of 2023 F1 season champion Max Verstappen has also been revealed. Specifically, the Dutch racer receives $35 million in salary in 2023 and $20 million in bonuses from winning 19 races. Some analysts also calculate that in 2023, for every completed lap, Max Verstappen will earn 50,000 USD. More specifically, Max Verstappen takes about 90 seconds to complete 1 lap and earns 50,000 USD, more than the salary that young star Alejandro Ganarcho receives at Manchester United in a whole week. An unbelievable income, but extremely worthy for the successes that Max Verstappen achieved in F1 in the past season.
