With Max Verstappen seemingly on his way to winning his second World Championship’s title, the Dutchman says he has always ‘trusted the process’ at Red Bull

Verstappen angrily on Red Bull success: I trusted…….but.. here’s full details
Verstappen joined Red Bull midway through the 2016 season, and took a fairy-tale win on his debut outing for the team at that year’s Spanish Grand Prix.
But with Mercedes remaining dominant for the next few years, Verstappen didn’t score more than three wins per season until 2021, when the RB16B allowed him to go toe-to-toe with Mercedes and Lewis Hamilton for that year’s title.
Having snatched the 2021 Championship in controversial fashion at the last round in Abu Dhabi, Verstappen appears set to retain his crown this year.
Before the 2022 season began, Verstappen signed a new contract tying him to Red Bull until 2028, and said he felt vindicated in having previously chosen to commit his future to the team even when they were not in title-winning contention.

“It is really enjoyable to be part of the team, and it is a really good team atmosphere,” Verstappen told media including RacingNews365.com.
“And I always find that that’s the most important. Even if you’re not winning, if the team atmosphere is good, then you can improve a lot over time, and you have to be patient as well, you cannot force things. That’s what I always learned.
“I could have [moved to another team] and tried to chase immediate success, but I trusted the process, and I believe in the people in the team and it’s paying off, so I’m very happy.”
