news now;In 2024, Verstappen will have to spend 1.2 million euros in order to race again.
Red Bull now owes 6.8 million euros on top of this.
The total cost will be more than the 7 million euro fine from the previous year for going over budget, given the base charge, the bonus of winning their respective categories, and the incredible quantity of wins, doubles, and points.
Additionally, it goes beyond what Mercedes and Ferrari, the third and second place teams combined, will have to pay.
After his 19 wins, Verstappen will have to pay 1.2 million euros in total. This amount starts at the base, where the cost is 10,400 euros, and each point is worth 2,100 euros. Verstappen set a record with his 575 points.
Checo Perez, the runner-up, is behind him with 608,900 euros.

With 443,000 euros, Fernando Alonso has the fourth-highest fee, followed by Carlos Sainz in seventh place with 430,000 euros.
Logan Sargeant is the final one, and he will receive a pitiful 12,500 euros.
As a financial source for the FIA, this is a contentious topic.
“I don’t think it’s right that we have to pay so much,” Max replied.
