Max Verstappen will stay with the Red Bull Formula 1 team until the end of 2023, and his new deal will have a wider impact on the driver market.
Following Ferrari signing Charles Leclerc to a new deal just before Christmas, the potential for seismic 2020 silly season with many top-line drivers up for grabs now looks more muted.
For Verstappen, the new deal comes after a promising first year Red Bull had using Honda power in 2019 and therefore demonstrates his faith the team can put up a consistent title fight in the future.
In this video, Jack Benyon is joined by Ben Anderson and Stuart Codling to discuss the wider impact of Verstappen's new deal and what it means to the eight-time grand prix winner.
