Max Verstappen’s promising performance has fetched Red Bull yet another title. Max just got crowned as the World Driver’s Champion for the second time in a row. With the new high that Red Bull is currently riding, their chief adviser, Helmut Marko shared their future plans.

At the Japanese Grand Prix, Max won a 28-lap race with a 27-second lead. The Dutchman’s loyal fans weathered the storm to watch their beloved racer win. Following the footsteps of the youngest bi-champion, Sebastian Vettel, Max Verstappen is leaving no stone unturned.

Seeing Max’s tremendous recent outings, Marko reported, “Our improved reliability was crucial, but Max’s excellent performance should be highlighted.” [Translated using Google]

As you may know, Max, with 12 wins this season already, is on course to break Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel’s record for the most race wins in a season, which is 13. Although it would be a big feat for the Dutchman and his team, the Austrian has some other plans.

Talking to Servus TV and Osterreich, he said, “We have now won six drivers ‘titles, but we have never taken home a double in the drivers’ standings.”

He further explained, “Perez’s 2nd place is more important than Verstappen’s 14 victories”

It seems that the Milton Keynes camp will now prioritize Sergio Perez’s races over Max Verstappen’s as they would like him to finish in the P2 spot for the WDC.
