What is Max Verstappen’s net worth?

F1 Salaries estimates Max Verstappen’s fortune at $305 million in November 2026. He races for Red Bull on a base salary of $70 million, under a contract running to the end of 2030, and has earned $471.61 million in Formula 1 across his career.

Formula 1 contracts are private, so salaries and bonuses are reported estimates rather than confirmed figures. The net worth figure compounds contract income with sponsorship and business interests.

Where the money comes from

Verstappen won on his Red Bull debut in Spain in 2016 at eighteen, the youngest winner in Formula 1 history, and collected four titles between 2021 and 2024.

His current deal pays a base salary of $70 million with bonuses that can take total income to $90 million, and it runs to the end of 2030.

Sim racing, personal sponsors and a growing set of Dutch and international brand deals add to the racing income, though they are smaller than the contract itself.

How we estimate it

Salary, bonus and career earnings figures come from F1 Salaries, which builds them from published contract reports and updates them through the season. We then account for sponsorship and business income to arrive at an overall net worth rather than annual pay.

Because teams do not publish contracts, a single reported number can move by tens of millions between sources. We use one consistent source across the list so the ranking compares like with like.
