MAX VERSTAPPEN aims to follow in his idol's footsteps by switching to GT racing in the future.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Red Bull driver\u00a0sealed his\u00a0third consecutive world championship\u00a0after finishing second in the Qatar GP sprint race.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Verstappen,\u00a0still only 26, became the first driver to wrap up a title during a sprint event, the short-form format introduced in 2021.<\/p>\n

But despite his dominance, the F1 ace sparked speculation earlier this year that he could walk from the sport when his current contract expires in 2028.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And now the Dutchman has claimed he wants to mirror the career of MotoGp legend Valentino Rossi.<\/p>\n

Verstappen made it clear that working with GT cars is an avenue he would like to explore.<\/p>\n

He told Gazzetta Dello Sport: "I will race longer, but not in Grand Prix races.<\/p>\n

"It would be nice to do it like Valentino Rossi, I like to see his races in GT, a category I have an interest in because we have our own car entered.<\/p>\n

"He did everything he could in MotoGP, with a crazy career, and now he's having fun.<\/p>\n

"While still working hard and wanting to win again. I think I will look for something similar in the future."<\/p>\n
