Fersstappen told what important role the family plays for him. Radier Red Bull Max Fertappen shared his thoughts about what he would do after Formula 1.
According to the four -time world champion, to win eight titles, having broken the record of Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton, it would be amazing, but not that necessarily.
I know that I can’t chase forever. I love races, rivalry at the highest level with so many amazing pilots, but the day will come when I want to relax a bit. You live only once.
When you are under 40 or more, a decline in the body naturally occurs. Of course, I want to spend time in F-1, but also do other things. I want to squeeze the maximum from my time on this planet.
There are so many things that I want to do, as well as have fun and stay with my family. Sometimes mom or dad call me, and I am busy and say that I’ll call back later - but at the same time I know that the day will come when they will not call me anymore because they will not be with us.
In such moments, you understand that in life there are not only F-1. I try to spend time with them, because since I was four years old, all our lives-the life of my family-have been dedicated to me, success, an attempt to break into F-1. At some point, you need to finish, and you must repay the debt, spend more time with them.
In the end, this is much more important than any success on our website. This is cool, I like it, I like to compete, I like to win the titles, I like to win in races, but at some point the family comes to first place, because people get older and you really have to value such moments.
Now I am very happy in my place. I’ll try to do it as long as I can, have fun - and I feel that it is worth it, ”Max said.
